NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
For the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2025 and 2024
1.GENERAL
Everest Group, Ltd. (“Group”), a Bermuda company, through its subsidiaries, principally provides reinsurance and insurance in the U.S., Bermuda and other international markets. As used in this document, “Company” and “Everest” mean Group and its subsidiaries.
Unless noted otherwise, all tabular dollar amounts are in millions of United States (“U.S.”) dollars (“U.S. dollars” or “$”). Some amounts may not reconcile due to rounding.
2.BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair statement of the results on an interim basis. Certain financial information, which is normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), has been omitted since it is not required for interim reporting purposes. The December 31, 2024 consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. The results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results for a full year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, included in the Company’s most recent Form 10-K filing.
The Company consolidates the results of operations and financial position of all voting interest entities ("VOE") in which the Company has a controlling financial interest and all variable interest entities ("VIE") in which the Company is considered to be the primary beneficiary. The consolidation assessment, including the determination as to whether an entity qualifies as a VIE or VOE, depends on the facts and circumstances surrounding each entity.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities (and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities) at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Ultimate actual results could differ, possibly materially, from those estimates.
All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Adoption of New Accounting Standards
The Company did not adopt any new accounting standards that had a material impact during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025.
Future Adoption of Recently Issued Accounting Standards
The Company assessed the adoption impacts of recently issued accounting standards that are effective after 2025 by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Additionally, the Company assessed whether there have been material updates to previously issued accounting standards that are effective after 2025. There were no accounting standards identified, other than those directly referenced below, that are expected to have a material impact to Group.
Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. In December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update No. 2023-09, which requires expanded income tax disclosures, including the disaggregation of existing disclosures related to the tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Prospective application is required, with retrospective application permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect the updated guidance will have on the Company's financial statement disclosures.
Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. In November 2024, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update No. 2024-03, which requires additional disclosure about specific expense categories included in the income statement. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim reporting periods
beginning after December 15, 2027. Prospective application is required, with retrospective application permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect the updated guidance will have on the Company's financial statement disclosures.

The aggregate fair value and gross unrealized losses related to fixed maturity securities - available for sale in an unrealized loss position at June 30, 2025 were $13.1 billion and $870 million, respectively. The fair value of securities for the single issuer (the U.S. government), whose securities comprised the largest unrealized loss position at June 30, 2025, amounted to less than 1.4% of the overall fair value of the Company’s fixed maturity securities - available for sale. The fair value of the securities for the issuer with the second largest unrealized loss position at June 30, 2025 comprised less than 0.3% of the Company’s fixed maturity securities available for sale. In addition, as indicated on the above table, there was no significant concentration of unrealized losses in any one market sector. The $205 million of unrealized losses related to fixed maturity securities - available for sale that have been in an unrealized loss position for less than one year were generally comprised of domestic and foreign corporate securities, agency residential mortgage-backed securities, asset-backed securities and foreign government securities. Of these unrealized losses, $180 million were related to securities that were rated investment grade by at least one nationally recognized rating agency. The $664 million of unrealized losses related to fixed maturity securities - available for sale in an unrealized loss position for more than one year related
primarily to domestic and foreign corporate securities, agency residential and non-agency commercial mortgage-backed securities and foreign government securities. Of these unrealized losses, $653 million were related to securities that were rated investment grade by at least one nationally recognized rating agency. In all instances, there were no projected cash flow shortfalls to recover the full book value of the investments and the related interest obligations. The mortgage-backed securities still have excess credit coverage and are current on interest and principal payments. Based upon the Company’s current evaluation of securities in an unrealized loss position as of June 30, 2025, the unrealized losses are due to changes in interest rates and non-issuer-specific credit spreads and are not credit-related. In addition, the contractual terms of these securities do not permit these securities to be settled at a price less than their amortized cost.

The aggregate fair value and gross unrealized losses related to fixed maturity securities - available for sale in an unrealized loss position at December 31, 2024 were $18.3 billion and $1.2 billion, respectively. The fair value of securities for the single issuer (the U.S. government), whose securities comprised the largest unrealized loss position at
December 31, 2024, amounted to less than 1.6% of the overall fair value of the Company’s fixed maturity securities - available for sale. The fair value of the securities for the issuer with the second largest unrealized loss comprised less than 0.9% of the Company’s fixed maturity securities - available for sale. In addition, as indicated on the above table, there was no significant concentration of unrealized losses in any one market sector. The $324 million of unrealized losses related to fixed maturity securities - available for sale that have been in an unrealized loss position for less than one year were generally comprised of domestic and foreign corporate securities, asset-backed securities, agency residential mortgage-backed securities and foreign government securities. Of these unrealized losses, $319 million were related to securities that were rated investment grade by at least one nationally recognized rating agency. The $833 million of unrealized losses related to fixed maturity securities - available for sale in an unrealized loss position for more than one year related primarily to domestic and foreign corporate securities, agency residential mortgage-backed securities and foreign government securities. Of these unrealized losses, $810 million were related to securities that were rated investment grade by at least one nationally recognized rating agency. In all instances, there were no projected cash flow shortfalls to recover the full book value of the investments and the related interest obligations. The mortgage-backed securities still have excess credit coverage and are current on interest and principal payments.

The Company records results from limited partnership investments on the equity method of accounting with changes in value reported through net investment income. The net investment income from limited partnerships is dependent upon the Company’s share of the net asset values (“NAVs”) of interests underlying each limited partnership. Due to the timing of receiving financial information from these partnerships, the results are generally reported on a one month or quarter lag. If the Company determines there has been a significant decline in value of a limited partnership during this lag period, a loss will be recorded in the period in which the Company identifies the decline.
The Company had contractual commitments to invest up to an additional $3.0 billion in limited partnerships and private placement loan securities at June 30, 2025. These commitments will be funded when called in accordance with the partnership and loan agreements, which have investment periods that expire, unless extended, through 2035.
In 2022, the Company entered into corporate-owned life insurance (“COLI”) policies, which are invested in debt and equity securities. The COLI policies are carried within other invested assets at the policy cash surrender value of $1.8 billion and $1.7 billion as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
Variable Interest Entities
The Company is engaged with various special purpose entities and other entities that are deemed to be VIEs, primarily as an investor through normal investment activities but also as an investment manager. A VIE is an entity that either has investors that lack certain essential characteristics of a controlling financial interest, such as simple majority kick-out rights, or lacks sufficient funds to finance its own activities without financial support provided by other entities. The Company performs ongoing qualitative assessments of its VIEs to determine whether the Company has a controlling financial interest in the VIE and therefore is the primary beneficiary. The Company is deemed to have a controlling financial interest when it has both the ability to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic
performance of the VIE and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. Based on the Company’s assessment, if it determines it is the primary beneficiary, the Company consolidates the VIE in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company did not hold any securities for which it is the primary beneficiary.
The Company, through normal investment activities, makes passive investments in general and limited partnerships and other alternative investments. For these non-consolidated VIEs, the Company has determined it is not the primary beneficiary as it has no ability to direct activities that could significantly affect the economic performance of the investments. The Company’s maximum exposure to loss as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 is limited to the total carrying value of $3.8 billion and $3.6 billion, respectively, which are included in general and limited partnerships.
As of June 30, 2025, the Company has outstanding commitments totaling $1.9 billion whereby the Company is committed to fund these investments and may be called by the partnership during the commitment period to fund the purchase of new investments and partnership expenses. These investments are generally of a passive nature in that the Company does not take an active role in management.
In addition, the Company makes passive investments in structured securities issued by VIEs for which the Company is not the manager. These investments are included in asset-backed securities, which includes collateralized loan obligations, and are classified as fixed maturities, available for sale. The Company has not provided financial or other support with respect to these investments other than its original investment. For these investments, the Company determined it is not the primary beneficiary due to the relative size of the Company’s investment in comparison to the principal amount of the structured securities issued by the VIEs, credit subordination that reduces the Company’s obligation to absorb losses or right to receive benefits or the Company’s inability to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the VIEs. The Company’s maximum exposure to loss on these investments is limited to the amount of the Company’s investment.

During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company sold fixed maturity securities - held to maturity with a net carrying amount of $11 million, which had realized losses of $1 million as part of the sale. The Company's decision to sell was due to significant credit deterioration of the issuer of the securities.
4.FAIR VALUE
GAAP guidance regarding fair value measurements addresses how companies should measure fair value when they are required to use fair value measures for recognition or disclosure purposes under GAAP and provides a common definition of fair value to be used throughout GAAP. It defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly fashion between market participants at the measurement date. In addition, it establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for the disclosure of fair value measurements. The valuation hierarchy is based on the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability. The level in the hierarchy within which a given fair value measurement falls is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the measurement, with Level 1 being the highest priority and Level 3 being the lowest priority.
The levels in the hierarchy are defined as follows:
| | | | | |
Level 1: | Inputs to the valuation methodology are observable inputs that reflect unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in an active market; |
| |
Level 2: | Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument; |
| |
Level 3: | Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. |
The Company’s fixed maturity and equity securities are managed both internally and on an external basis by independent, professional investment managers using portfolio guidelines approved by the Company. The Company obtains prices from nationally recognized pricing services. These services seek to utilize market data and observations in their evaluation process. These services use pricing applications that vary by asset class and incorporate available market information. When fixed maturity securities do not trade on a daily basis, the services will apply available information through processes such as benchmark curves, benchmarking of like securities, sector groupings and matrix pricing. In addition, they use model processes, such as the Option Adjusted Spread model to develop prepayment and interest rate scenarios for securities that have prepayment features.
The Company does not make any changes to prices received from the pricing services. In addition, the Company has procedures in place to review the reasonableness of the prices from the service providers and may request verification of the prices. The Company also continually performs quantitative and qualitative analysis of prices, including but not limited to initial and ongoing review of pricing methodologies, review of prices obtained from pricing services and third party investment asset managers, review of pricing statistics and trends and comparison of prices for certain securities with a secondary price source for reasonableness. No material variances were noted during these price validation procedures. In limited situations, where financial markets are inactive or illiquid, the Company may use its own assumptions about future cash flows and risk-adjusted discount rates to determine fair value.
At June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, $2.3 billion and $2.2 billion, respectively, of fixed maturities were fair valued using unobservable inputs. The majority of these fixed maturities were valued by investment managers’ valuation committees and many of these fair values were substantiated by valuations from independent third parties. The Company has procedures in place to evaluate these independent third party valuations.
Equity securities denominated in U.S. currency with quoted prices in active markets for identical assets are categorized as Level 1, since the quoted prices are directly observable. Equity securities traded on foreign exchanges are categorized as Level 2 due to the added input of a foreign exchange conversion rate to determine fair value. The Company uses foreign currency exchange rates published by nationally recognized sources.
Fixed maturity securities listed in the tables have been categorized as Level 2, since a particular security may not have traded but the pricing services are able to use valuation models with observable market inputs such as interest rate yield curves and prices for similar fixed maturity securities in terms of issuer, maturity and seniority. For foreign government securities and foreign corporate securities, the fair values are provided by the third party pricing services in local currencies, and where applicable, are converted to U.S. dollars using currency exchange rates from nationally recognized sources.
In addition, some of the fixed maturities with fair values categorized as Level 3 result when prices are not available from the nationally recognized pricing services, are obtained from investment managers and are derived using unobservable inputs. The Company will value the securities with unobservable inputs using comparable market information or receive fair values from investment managers. The investment managers may obtain non-binding price quotes for the securities from brokers. The single broker quotes are provided by market makers or broker-dealers who are recognized as market participants in the markets in which they are providing the quotes. The prices received from brokers are reviewed for reasonableness by the third party asset managers and the Company. If the broker quotes are for foreign denominated securities, the quotes are converted to U.S. dollars using currency exchange rates from nationally recognized sources.
The composition and valuation inputs for the presented fixed maturities categories Level 1 and Level 2 are as follows:
•U.S. Treasury securities and obligations of U.S. government agencies and corporations are primarily comprised of U.S. Treasury bonds, and the fair value is based on observable market inputs such as quoted prices, reported trades, quoted prices for similar issuances or benchmark yields;
•Obligations of U.S. states and political subdivisions are comprised of state and municipal bond issuances, and the fair values are based on observable market inputs such as quoted market prices, quoted prices for similar securities, benchmark yields and credit spreads;
•Corporate securities are primarily comprised of U.S. corporate and public utility bond issuances, and the fair values are based on observable market inputs such as quoted market prices, quoted prices for similar securities, benchmark yields and credit spreads;
•Asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities fair values are based on observable inputs such as quoted prices, reported trades, quoted prices for similar issuances or benchmark yields and cash flow models using observable inputs such as prepayment speeds, collateral performance and default spreads;
•Foreign government securities are comprised of global non-U.S. sovereign bond issuances, and the fair values are based on observable market inputs such as quoted market prices, quoted prices for similar securities and models with observable inputs such as benchmark yields and credit spreads and then, where applicable, are converted to U.S. dollars using an exchange rate from a nationally recognized source; and
•Foreign corporate securities are comprised of global non-U.S. corporate bond issuances, and the fair values are based on observable market inputs such as quoted market prices, quoted prices for similar securities and models with observable inputs such as benchmark yields and credit spreads and then, where applicable, are converted to U.S. dollars using an exchange rate from a nationally recognized source.
The following tables present the fair value measurement levels for all assets and liabilities, which the Company has recorded at fair value as of the periods indicated:

Financial Instruments Disclosed, But Not Reported, at Fair Value
Certain financial instruments disclosed, but not reported, at fair value are excluded from the fair value hierarchy tables above. Fair values and valuation hierarchy of fixed maturity securities – held to maturity, senior notes and long-term subordinated notes can be found within Notes 3, 8 and 9 of the Notes to these consolidated financial statements, respectively. Short-term investments are stated at cost, which approximates fair value.
Exempt from Fair Value Disclosure Requirements
Certain financial instruments are exempt from the requirements for fair value disclosure, such as limited partnerships accounted for under the equity method and pension and other postretirement obligations. The Company’s investments in COLI policies are recorded at their cash surrender value and are therefore not required to be included in the tables above. See Note 3 of the Notes to these consolidated financial statements for details of investments in COLI policies.
In addition, $251 million and $239 million of investments within other invested assets on the consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, are not included within the fair value hierarchy tables, as the assets are measured at NAV as a practical expedient to determine fair value.
5.RESERVE FOR LOSSES AND LAE
The following table provides a roll forward of the Company’s beginning and ending reserve for losses and LAE and is summarized for the periods indicated:
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| Six Months Ended June 30, |
| 2025 | | 2024 |
| (Dollars in millions) | | | |
| Gross reserves beginning of period | $ | 29,889 | | | $ | 24,604 | |
| Less reinsurance recoverables on unpaid losses | (2,915) | | | (2,098) | |
| Net reserves beginning of period | 26,975 | | | 22,506 | |
| | | |
| Incurred related to: | | | |
| Current year | 5,307 | | | 4,548 | |
| Prior years | 59 | | | — | |
| Total incurred losses and LAE | 5,366 | | | 4,548 | |
| | | |
| Paid related to: | | | |
| Current year | 621 | | | 1,068 | |
| Prior years | 3,107 | | | 2,145 | |
| Total paid losses and LAE | 3,728 | | | 3,213 | |
| | | |
| Foreign exchange/translation adjustment | 655 | | | (139) | |
| | | |
| Net reserves end of period | 29,267 | | | 23,702 | |
| Plus reinsurance recoverables on unpaid losses | 3,209 | | | 2,151 | |
| Gross reserves end of period | $ | 32,476 | | | $ | 25,853 | |
(Some amounts may not reconcile due to rounding.)
Current year incurred losses were $5.3 billion and $4.5 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Gross and net reserves increased for the six months ended June 30, 2025, reflecting an increase in underlying exposure due to earned premium growth, year over year, amounting to approximately $441 million of current year attritional losses in 2025 compared to 2024, which includes $83 million of losses from the Washington D.C. aviation accident, as well as an increase of $318 million in 2025 current year catastrophe losses.
The net unfavorable development on prior year reserves of $59 million was primarily related to aviation losses associated with the Russia/Ukraine war of $98 million, partially offset by net favorable prior year development of $39 million, driven by the release of reserves from prior underwriting years for the property line of business. The net unfavorable prior year loss development was recorded in the Reinsurance segment.
In the second quarter of 2025, the United Kingdom’s High Court concluded that that the confiscation of certain aircraft was covered under the war provision within certain reinsurance contracts. As a result of the court’s decision, the Company increased its net ultimate loss reserve for contracts that were exposed to the war in the Ukraine by $98 million ($84 million net of reinstatement premiums).
6.SEGMENT REPORTING
The Company conducts business through two reportable segments: Reinsurance and Insurance. The Reinsurance operation writes worldwide property and casualty reinsurance and specialty lines of business, on both a treaty and facultative basis, through reinsurance brokers, as well as directly with ceding companies. Business is written in the U.S., Bermuda and Ireland offices, as well as through branches in Canada, Singapore, the United Kingdom (“U.K.”) and Switzerland. The Insurance operation writes property and casualty insurance directly and through brokers, including for surplus lines, and general agents within the U.S., Bermuda, Canada, Europe, Singapore and South America through its offices in the U.S., Bermuda, Canada, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, Singapore, the U.K., Ireland, and branches located in Australia, the U.K., the Netherlands, France, Germany, Italy and Spain. The two reportable segments are managed independently, but conform with corporate guidelines with respect to pricing, risk management, control of aggregate catastrophe exposures, capital, investments and support operations.
Our two reportable segments each have executive leaders who are responsible for the overall performance of their respective segments and who are directly accountable to our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), the Chief Executive Officer of Everest Group, Ltd., who is ultimately responsible for reviewing the business to assess performance, make operating decisions and allocate resources. We report the results of our operations consistent with the manner in which our CODM reviews the business.
During the fourth quarter of 2024, the Company revised its classification and presentation of certain run-off business, previously included within the Reinsurance and Insurance reportable segments, as part of a new segment called "Other". The new Other segment includes the results of our sports and leisure business sold in October 2024, consisting of policies written prior to the sale and polices renewed and certain new business written on the Company’s paper post-sale. It also includes run-off asbestos and environmental (“A&E”) exposures, certain discontinued insurance programs primarily written prior to 2012 and certain discontinued insurance and reinsurance coverage classes. The Other segment does not generally sell insurance or reinsurance products but is responsible for the management of existing policies and settlement of related losses. These segment presentation changes have been reflected retrospectively. The Company will continue to have two reportable segments that actively sell products, Reinsurance and Insurance, consistent with how the on-going business is managed.
The Company does not review and evaluate the financial results of its segments based upon balance sheet data. Management generally monitors and evaluates the financial performance of these segments based upon their underwriting results. Underwriting results include earned premium less losses and LAE incurred, commission and brokerage expenses and other underwriting expenses. The Company measures its underwriting results using ratios, in particular, loss, commission and brokerage and other underwriting expense ratios, which, respectively, divide incurred losses, commissions and brokerage and other underwriting expenses by premiums earned. Management has determined that these measures are appropriate and align with how the business is managed. We continue to evaluate our segments as our business evolves and may further refine our segments and financial performance measures.
The following tables present segment underwriting results for the periods indicated:

Recoveries under these collateralized reinsurance agreements with Kilimanjaro are primarily dependent on estimated industry-level insured losses from covered events, as well as the geographic location of the events. The estimated industry-level of insured losses is obtained from published estimates by an independent recognized authority on insured property losses.
Kilimanjaro has financed the various property catastrophe reinsurance coverages by issuing catastrophe bonds to unrelated, external investors. The proceeds from the issuance of the catastrophe bonds are held in reinsurance trusts throughout the duration of the applicable reinsurance agreements and invested solely in U.S. government money market funds with a rating of at least “AAAm” by Standard & Poor’s. The catastrophe bonds’ issue dates, maturity dates and amounts correspond to the reinsurance agreements listed above.
11.COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
In the ordinary course of business, the Company is involved in lawsuits, arbitrations and other formal and informal dispute resolution procedures, the outcomes of which will determine the Company’s rights and obligations under insurance and reinsurance agreements. In some disputes, the Company seeks to enforce its rights under an agreement or to collect funds owing to it. In other matters, the Company is resisting attempts by others to collect funds or enforce alleged rights. These disputes arise from time to time and are ultimately resolved through both informal and formal means, including negotiated resolution, arbitration and litigation. In all such matters, the Company believes that its positions are legally and commercially reasonable. The Company considers the statuses of these proceedings when determining its reserves for unpaid loss and LAE.
Aside from litigation and arbitrations related to these insurance and reinsurance agreements, the Company is not a party to any other material litigation or arbitration.

14.EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE
Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution that would occur if options granted under various share-based compensation plans were exercised resulting in the issuance of common shares that would participate in the earnings of the entity.
Net income (loss) per common share has been computed as shown below, based upon weighted average common basic and dilutive shares outstanding.

15.INCOME TAXES
On December 27, 2023, the Government of Bermuda enacted the Corporate Income Tax Act 2023 (“The 2023 Act”), which applies a 15% corporate income tax to certain Bermuda businesses in fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2025. The 2023 Act includes a provision referred to as “The Economic Transition Adjustment”, which is intended to provide a fair and equitable transition into the new tax regime, and results in a deferred tax benefit for the Company. However, on January 15, 2025, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development issued Administrative Guidance related to “deferred tax assets arising from tax benefits provided by General Government” whereby it has restricted the utilization of those deferred tax benefits against the computation of its Pillar Two Global Minimum Taxes to approximately 20% of the originally calculated amounts and only for a grace period of two years through 2026. If the Bermuda Ministry of Finance amends The 2023 Act in response to this guidance, the exact impact of any such amendments is uncertain but there is a risk that it results in a reduction in the Company's Deferred Tax Assets.
All of the income of Group's non-Bermuda subsidiaries is subject to the applicable federal, foreign, state and local taxes on corporations. Additionally, the income of the foreign branches of the Company's insurance operating companies is subject to various rates of income tax. Group's U.S. subsidiaries conduct business in and are subject to taxation in the U.S. Should the U.S. subsidiaries distribute current or accumulated earnings and profits in the form of dividends or otherwise, the Company would be subject to an accrual of 5% U.S. withholding tax. Currently, however, no withholding tax has been accrued with respect to such un-remitted earnings as management has no intention of remitting them. The cumulative amount that would be subject to withholding tax, if distributed, is not practicable to compute. The provision for income taxes in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss) has been determined in accordance with the individual income of each entity and the respective applicable tax laws. The provision reflects the permanent differences between financial and taxable income relevant to each entity.
On July 4, 2025, The One Big Beautiful Bill was signed into law. The Company is still evaluating the effects of the new law.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Overview.
Everest is a global underwriting leader providing best-in-class property, casualty and specialty reinsurance and insurance solutions. As part of the Standard & Poor’s (“S&P”) 500 Index, we are a leading financial services institution focused on value creation for our shareholders while diversifying our portfolio and geographic presence. Through our direct and indirect subsidiaries operating in the U.S. and internationally, we serve a diverse group of clients worldwide, providing what we believe are extensive product and distribution capabilities, a strong balance sheet, an innovative culture and access to world-class talent.
As a global leader with a 50-year track record, we are a preferred Reinsurance partner in the markets we serve, and with our growing Insurance franchise we strive to deliver consistent value to all our stakeholders. We continue to grow and develop our Insurance business, investing in our global platform and strengthening our portfolio and its potential to deliver on our customer promise.
During 2024, we formed a new “Other” segment, primarily comprised of the results of our sports and leisure business sold in October 2024, consisting of policies written prior to the sale and polices renewed and certain new business written on the Company’s paper post-sale. It also includes run-off asbestos and environmental (“A&E”) exposures, certain discontinued insurance programs primarily written prior to 2012 and certain discontinued insurance and reinsurance coverage classes. The Other segment does not generally sell insurance or reinsurance products but is responsible for the management of existing policies and settlement of related losses. These segment presentation changes have been reflected retrospectively. The Company will continue to have two reportable segments that actively sell products, Reinsurance and Insurance, consistent with how the on-going business is managed. See Note 6 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a summary of segment results.
The following is a discussion of our results of operations, financial condition and liquidity and capital resources for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes, under Part I - Item 1 of this Form 10-Q, as well as the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2024, included in the Company’s most recent Form 10-K filing.
All comparisons in this discussion are to the corresponding prior year unless otherwise indicated.

Revenues.
Premiums. Gross written premiums decreased by 0.9% remaining relatively constant at $4.7 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $4.7 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease reflects a $45 million, or 3.1%, decrease in our insurance business and a $34 million, or 60.5%, decrease in business within the Other segment, partially offset by a $34 million, or 1.1%, increase in our reinsurance business. The decrease in insurance premiums compared to the prior year period was primarily due to portfolio actions taken on specialty casualty lines of
business, partially offset by an increase in other specialty business and accident and health business. Gross written premiums within Other decreased by $35 million as this segment generally represents lines of business that have been discontinued. The increase in reinsurance premiums was primarily due to property pro rata and property catastrophe excess of loss lines of business, partially offset by a decrease in financial lines business driven by actions taken on our North America casualty business.
Gross written premiums decreased by 0.7% remaining relatively constant at $9.1 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $9.1 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease reflects an $83 million, or 62.4%, decrease within the Other segment and a $60 million, or 2.3%, decrease in our insurance business, partially offset by a $78 million, or 1.2%, increase in our reinsurance business. Gross written premiums within Other has decreased by $83 million as this segment generally represents lines of business that have been discontinued. The decrease in insurance premiums was primarily due to portfolio actions taken on specialty casualty lines of business, partially offset by an increase in other specialty business and property/short tail business. The increase in reinsurance premiums was primarily driven by property pro rata business and property catastrophe excess of loss business, partially offset by actions taken on our North America reinsurance casualty business.
Net written premiums increased by 0.8% remaining relatively constant at $4.1 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $4.1 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2024, primarily driven by higher retention in certain lines of business and overall mix of business. Net written premiums decreased by 1.6% to $7.9 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $8.0 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The larger percentage decrease in net written premiums compared to the percentage decrease in gross written premiums was mainly due to overall mix of business.
Premiums earned increased by 8.1% to $4.0 billion during the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $3.7 billion during the three months ended June 30, 2024. Premiums earned increased by 6.8% to $7.8 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $7.3 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The change in premiums earned relative to net written premiums was primarily the result of timing as the higher base premium written in 2024 is being earned through the 2025 period; premiums are earned ratably over the coverage period whereas written premiums are generally recorded at the initiation of the coverage period.
Other Income (Expense). We recorded other expense of $27 million and other income of $23 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. We recorded other expense of $100 million and other income of $54 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The changes were primarily the result of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, in particular, the movements in the Euro and British Pound Sterling. We recognized foreign currency exchange expense of $60 million and foreign exchange currency income of $9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. We recognized foreign currency exchange expense of $134 million and foreign currency exchange income of $41 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The other expense incurred for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 is partially offset by a $26.7 million pension plan settlement gain recognized in the second quarter of 2025 driven by the extinguishment of the Everest Reinsurance Company (“Everest Re”) retirement pension plan obligation liability.

Incurred losses and LAE increased by 7.0% to $2.5 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $2.3 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2024, primarily due to an increase of $233 million in current year attritional losses and an increase in unfavorable development on prior year attritional losses of $59 million, partially offset by a decrease of $131 million in current year catastrophe losses. The increase in current year attritional losses was mainly due to the impact of the increase in premiums earned. The unfavorable development on prior year attritional losses was primarily related to aviation losses associated with the Russia/Ukraine war of $98 million, partially offset by net favorable prior year development of $39 million, driven by the release of reserves from prior underwriting years for the property line of business. The net unfavorable prior year loss development was recorded in the Reinsurance segment.
In second quarter of 2025, the United Kingdom’s High Court concluded that that the confiscation of certain aircraft was covered under the war provision within certain reinsurance contracts. As a result of the court’s decision, the Company increased its net ultimate loss reserve for contracts that were exposed to the war in the Ukraine by $98 million ($84 million net of reinstatement premiums). The current year catastrophe losses of $20 million for the three months ended
June 30, 2025 related primarily to the 2025 U.S. Midwest convective storms ($12 million) as well as development on the first quarter 2025 Myanmar earthquake ($7 million). The $151 million of current year catastrophe losses for the three months ended June 30, 2024 related primarily to the 2024 Dubai floods ($40 million), the 2024 Germany floods ($40 million), the 2024 Brazil Floods ($35 million) and the 2024 Taiwan earthquake ($23 million).
Incurred losses and LAE increased by 18.0% to $5.4 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $4.5 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2024, primarily due to an increase of $441 million in current year attritional losses, an increase of $318 million in current year catastrophe losses and an increase in unfavorable development on prior year attritional losses of $59 million. The increase in current year attritional losses was mainly due to the impact of the increase in underlying exposures due to increased premiums earned. The unfavorable development on prior year attritional losses was primarily related to aviation losses associated with the Russia/Ukraine war of $98 million, partially offset by net favorable prior year development of $39 million, driven by the release of reserves from prior underwriting years for the property line of business. The net unfavorable prior year loss development was recorded in the Reinsurance segment. In the second quarter of 2025, the United Kingdom’s High Court concluded that that the confiscation of certain aircraft was covered under the war provision within certain reinsurance contracts. As a result of the court’s decision, the Company increased its net ultimate loss reserve for contracts that were exposed to the war in the Ukraine by $98 million ($84 million net of reinstatement premiums). The current year catastrophe losses of $554 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 related primarily to the 2025 Southern California wildfires ($513 million), the first quarter 2025 Myanmar earthquake ($29 million) and the 2025 U.S. Midwest convective storms ($12 million). The $236 million of current year catastrophe losses for the six months ended June 30, 2024 related primarily to the 2024 Baltimore bridge collapse ($70 million), the 2024 Dubai floods ($40 million), the 2024 Germany floods ($40 million), the 2024 Brazil Floods ($35 million) and the 2024 Taiwan earthquake ($23 million).
Catastrophe losses and loss expenses typically have a material effect on our incurred losses and LAE results and can vary significantly from period to period. Losses from natural catastrophes contributed 0.5 percentage points to the combined ratio for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared with 4.1 percentage points in the corresponding period of 2024, and 7.1 percentage points to the combined ratio for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared with 3.2 percentage points in the corresponding period of 2024.
Commission, Brokerage, Taxes and Fees. Commission, brokerage, taxes and fees increased by 11.5% to $880 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $790 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. Commission, brokerage, taxes and fees increased by 8.4% to $1.7 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $1.6 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The increases were primarily due to the impact of the increase in premiums earned and changes in the mix of business.
Other Underwriting Expenses. Other underwriting expenses were $254 million and $234 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024, respectively. Other underwriting expenses were $492 million and $458 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The increases in other underwriting expenses were driven by the increase in premiums earned.
Corporate Expenses. Corporate expenses, which are general operating expenses that are not allocated to segments, were $31 million and $22 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $52 million and $44 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The increase in Corporate expenses for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2025 are primarily due to a nonrecurring adjustment due to the curtailment of the employee benefit plan in 2024 as well as an increase in professional services related to the continued build out of our infrastructure.
Interest, Fees and Bond Issue Cost Amortization Expense. Interest, fees and other bond amortization expense was $38 million and $37 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Interest, fees and other bond amortization expense was $76 million and $75 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The increases were mainly due to higher interest costs on the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York borrowing. Increases in interest expense were offset by a decrease in the floating interest rate related to the Company’s outstanding fixed to floating rate long-term subordinated notes, which is reset quarterly, per the note agreement. The floating rate was 6.97% as of June 30, 2025, compared to 7.97% as of June 30, 2024.
Income Tax Expense (Benefit). Income tax expense was $135 million and $108 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Income tax expense was $173 million and $207 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The period over period increase in income tax expense is primarily a function of the geographic location of the Company’s pre-tax income and the statutory tax rates in those jurisdictions. The effective tax
rate (“ETR”) is primarily affected by tax-exempt investment income, foreign tax credits and dividends. Variations in the ETR generally result from changes in the relative levels of pre-tax income, including the impact of catastrophe losses and net capital gains (losses), among jurisdictions with different tax rates.
On December 27, 2023, the Government of Bermuda enacted the Corporate Income Tax Act 2023 (“The 2023 Act”), which applies a 15% corporate income tax to certain Bermuda businesses in fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2025. The 2023 Act includes a provision referred to as “The Economic Transition Adjustment”, which is intended to provide a fair and equitable transition into the new tax regime, and results in a deferred tax benefit for the Company. However, on January 15, 2025, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development issued Administrative Guidance related to “deferred tax assets arising from tax benefits provided by General Government” whereby it has restricted the utilization of those deferred tax benefits against the computation of its Pillar Two Global Minimum Taxes to approximately 20% of the originally calculated amounts and only for a grace period of two years through 2026. If the Bermuda Ministry of Finance amends The 2023 Act in response to this guidance, the exact impact of any such amendments is uncertain but there is a risk that it results in a reduction in the Company's Deferred Tax Assets.
On July 4, 2025, The One Big Beautiful Bill was signed into law. The Company is still evaluating the effects of the new law.
Net Income (Loss).
Our net income was $680 million and $724 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Our net income was $890 million and $1.5 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The period over period changes in net income were primarily driven by the financial component fluctuations explained above.
Ratios.
Our combined ratio increased by 0.1 points to 90.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to 90.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and increased by 6.8 points to 96.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to 89.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The current year increase is primarily due to higher catastrophe losses. Refer to the analysis of combined ratio components below.
The loss ratio component decreased by 0.7 points to 61.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to 62.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2024, mainly due to a $131 million decrease in catastrophe losses. The loss ratio component increased by 6.5 points to 68.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to 61.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2024, primarily due to an increase of $441 million in current year attritional losses, an increase of $318 million in current year catastrophe losses and unfavorable prior year development on attritional losses of $59 million, mainly related to aviation losses associated with the Russia/Ukraine war of $98 million, partially offset by net favorable prior year development of $39 million, driven by the release of reserves from prior underwriting years for the property line of business. The net unfavorable prior year loss development was recorded in the Reinsurance segment.
The commission and brokerage ratio components increased to 22.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to 21.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2024, and increased to 21.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to 21.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The quarter over quarter variance was mainly due to changes in the mix of business and consistent with increase in premiums earned.
The other underwriting expense ratios increased to 6.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to 6.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2024, and increased to 6.3% for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to 6.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The slight increase for the three and six months was mainly due to growth while remaining relatively consistent year over year.
Shareholders’ Equity.
Shareholders’ equity increased by $1.1 billion to $15.0 billion at June 30, 2025 from $13.9 billion at December 31, 2024, principally as a result of $890 million of net income, $597 million of unrealized appreciation on available for sale fixed maturity portfolio net of tax, $228 million of net foreign currency translation adjustments and $6 million of share-based compensation transactions, partially offset by $400 million of share repurchases, $169 million of shareholder dividends and $8 million of net benefit plan obligation adjustments.
Consolidated Investment Results
Net Investment Income.
Net investment income increased by 0.8% to $532 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared with net investment income of $528 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The increase for the three months ended June 30, 2025 was primarily the result of an increase of $27 million in income from fixed maturity investments, partially offset by a decline of $10 million in income from short-term investments, a decline of $8 million in income from other alternative investments and a decline of $5 million in limited partnership income. Net investment income increased by 3.9% to $1.0 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared with investment income of $1.0 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The increase for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was primarily the result of an increase of $61 million of income from fixed maturity investments, an increase of $2 million in income from other alternative investments and an increase of $1 million from short-term investments, partially offset by a decline of $35 million in limited partnership income. The limited partnership income primarily reflects changes in reported net asset values. As such, until these asset values are monetized and the resultant income is distributed, they are subject to volatile results of future increases or decreases in the asset value.
The following table shows the components of net investment income for the periods indicated:

Total net gains (losses) on investments during the three months ended June 30, 2025 primarily consist of $8 million of losses due to the disposition of investments and an increase to the allowance for credit losses of $2 million, partially offset by $5 million of gains from fair value adjustments on equity securities.
Total net gains (losses) on investments during the six months ended June 30, 2025 primarily relate to $13 million of net losses due to the disposition of investments and an increase to the allowance for credit losses of $2 million, partially offset by $3 million of gains from fair value adjustments on equity securities.
Segment Results.
Our two reportable segments, Reinsurance and Insurance, each have executive leadership who are responsible for the overall performance of their respective segments and who are directly accountable to our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), the President and Chief Executive Officer of Everest Group, Ltd., who is ultimately responsible for reviewing the business to assess performance, make operating decisions and allocate resources. We report the results of our operations consistent with the manner in which our CODM reviews the business.
During the fourth quarter of 2024, the Company revised its classification and presentation of certain run-off business, previously included within the Reinsurance and Insurance reportable segments, as part of a new segment called "Other". The Other segment includes the results of our sports and leisure business sold in October 2024, consisting of policies written prior to the sale and polices renewed and certain new business written on the Company’s paper post-sale. It also includes run-off A&E exposures, certain discontinued insurance programs primarily written prior to 2012 and certain discontinued insurance and reinsurance coverage classes. The Other segment does not generally sell insurance or reinsurance products but is responsible for the management of existing policies and settlement of related losses.
The Company does not review and evaluate the financial results of its segments based upon balance sheet data. Management generally monitors and evaluates the financial performance of these segments based upon their underwriting results. Underwriting results include earned premium less losses and LAE incurred, commission and brokerage expenses and other underwriting expenses. The Company measures its underwriting results using ratios, in particular, loss, commission and brokerage and other underwriting expense ratios, which, respectively, divide incurred losses, commissions and brokerage and other underwriting expenses by premiums earned. Management has determined that these measures are appropriate and align with how the business is managed. We continue to evaluate our segments as our business evolves and may further refine our segments and financial performance measures.
The following discusses the underwriting results for each of our segments for the periods indicated.
Reinsurance.
The following table presents the underwriting results and ratios for the Reinsurance segment for the periods indicated:

Premiums. Gross written premiums increased by 1.1% remaining relatively constant at $3.2 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2025 from $3.2 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2024, primarily driven by property pro rata business and property catastrophe excess of loss business, partially offset by a decrease in financial lines business driven by actions taken on our North America casualty business. Gross written premiums increased by 1.2% to $6.5 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2025 from $6.4 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2024, primarily due to property pro rata business and property catastrophe excess of loss business, partially offset by actions taken on our North America reinsurance casualty business.
Net written premiums increased by 1.4% remaining relatively consistent at $3.1 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2025 from $3.0 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2024. Net written premiums decreased by 1.5% to $5.9 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $6.0 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease was driven by higher retention in certain lines of business and overall mix of business.
Premiums earned increased by 11.2% to $3.0 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $2.7 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2024. Premiums earned increased by 8.8% to $5.9 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $5.5 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The growth in premiums earned is primarily driven by increased property pro rata business written that was recorded over the prior quarters which are now being earned. The change in premiums earned relative to net written premiums is the result of timing; premiums are earned ratably over the coverage period, whereas written premiums are generally recorded at the initiation of the coverage period.
Incurred Losses and LAE. The following tables present the incurred losses and LAE for the Reinsurance segment for the periods indicated:

Incurred losses increased by 5.2% to $1.8 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $1.7 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The increase was primarily due to an increase of $165 million in current year
attritional losses and an increase of unfavorable development on prior year attritional losses of $59 million, partially offset by a decrease of $137 million in current year catastrophe losses. The increase in current year attritional losses was mainly related to the impact of the increase in premiums earned. The unfavorable development on prior year attritional losses was primarily related to aviation losses associated with the Russia/Ukraine war of $98 million, partially offset by net favorable prior year development of $39 million, driven by the release of reserves from prior underwriting years for the property line of business. In the second quarter of 2025, The United Kingdom’s High Court concluded that that the confiscation of certain aircraft was covered under the war provision within certain reinsurance contracts. As a result of the court’s decision, the Company increased its net ultimate loss reserve for contracts that were exposed to the war in the Ukraine by $98 million ($84 million net of reinstatement premiums). There were no current year catastrophe losses for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The $137 million of current year catastrophe losses for the three months ended June 30, 2024 related primarily to the 2024 Dubai floods ($40 million), the 2024 Germany floods ($39 million), the 2024 Brazil Floods ($35 million) and the 2024 Taiwan earthquake ($21 million).
Incurred losses increased by 20.2% to $4.0 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $3.3 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The increase was primarily due to an increase of $305 million in current year attritional losses, an increase of $307 million in current year catastrophe losses and an increase of unfavorable development on prior year attritional losses of $59 million. The increase in current year attritional losses was mainly related to the impact of the increase in premiums earned. The unfavorable development on prior year attritional losses was primarily related to aviation losses associated with the Russia/Ukraine war of $98 million, partially offset by net favorable prior year development of $39 million, driven by the release of reserves from prior underwriting years for the property line of business. In the second quarter of 2025, the United Kingdom’s High Court concluded that that the confiscation of certain aircraft was covered under the war provision within certain reinsurance contracts. As a result of the court’s decision, the Company increased its net ultimate loss reserve for contracts that were exposed to the war in the Ukraine by $98 million ($84 million net of reinstatement premiums). The current year catastrophe losses of $523 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 related primarily to the 2025 Southern California wildfires ($503 million) and the first quarter 2025 Myanmar earthquake ($20 million). The $217 million of current year catastrophe losses for the six months ended June 30, 2024 related primarily to the 2024 Baltimore bridge collapse ($65 million), the 2024 Dubai floods ($40 million), the 2024 Germany floods ($39 million), the 2024 Brazil Floods ($35 million) and the 2024 Taiwan earthquake ($21 million).
Segment Expenses. Commission and brokerage expense increased by 12.0% to $753 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $672 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. Commission and brokerage expense increased by 8.7% to $1.5 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $1.3 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The increases were mainly due to the impact of the increase in premiums earned and changes in the mix of business.
Segment other underwriting expenses increased to $76 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 from $72 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. Segment other underwriting expenses increased to $147 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $142 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The increases were mainly due to increased expenditures supporting the increased premium volume of the segment.

Premiums. Gross written premiums decreased by 3.1% to $1.4 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $1.5 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease in insurance premiums was primarily due to portfolio actions taken on specialty casualty lines of business, partially offset by an increase in other specialty business and accident and health business. Gross written premiums decreased by 2.3% to $2.6 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $2.6 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease in insurance premiums was primarily due to portfolio actions taken on specialty casualty lines of business, partially offset by an increase in other specialty business and property/short tail business.
Net written premiums increased by 1.3% remaining constant at $1.0 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $1.0 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2024, primarily due to business mix and higher retention in certain lines of business. Net written premiums of $1.9 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2025, remained consistent with the $1.9 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2024.
Premiums earned increased by 1.1% to $920 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $910 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. Premiums earned increased by 2.9% to $1.8 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $1.8 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The change in premiums earned relative to net written premiums is the result of timing as the higher base premium written in 2024 is being earned through the 2025 period; premiums are earned ratably over the coverage period, whereas written premiums are generally recorded at the initiation of the coverage period.

Incurred losses and LAE increased by 9.3% to $643 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $588 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The increase was mainly due to an increase of $60 million in current year attritional losses, partially offset by a decrease of $5 million in current year catastrophe losses. The increase in current year attritional losses was primarily due to strengthening of loss selections in casualty lines, partially offset by changes in the mix of business. The $10 million of current year catastrophe losses for the three months ended June 30, 2025 primarily related to development on the first quarter 2025 Myanmar earthquake ($7 million) and the 2025 U.S. Midwest convective storms ($5 million). The $15 million of current year catastrophe losses for the three months ended June 30, 2024 related to the 2024 second quarter U.S. convective storms ($12 million), the 2024 Taiwan earthquake ($2 million) and the 2024 Germany floods ($1 million).
Incurred losses and LAE increased by 12.7% to $1.3 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $1.1 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The increase was mainly due to an increase of $144 million in current year attritional losses and an increase in current year catastrophe losses of $1 million. The increase in current year attritional losses was primarily due to the impact of the increase in premiums earned and strengthening of loss selections in casualty lines, partially offset by changes in mix of business. The current year catastrophe losses of $20 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 related primarily to the first quarter 2025 Myanmar earthquake ($9 million), the 2025 Southern
California wildfires ($7 million) and the 2025 U.S. Midwest convective storms ($5 million). The $20 million of current year catastrophe losses for the six months ended June 30, 2024 related to the 2024 second quarter U.S. convective storms ($12 million), the 2024 Baltimore bridge collapse ($4 million), the 2024 Taiwan earthquake ($2 million) and the 2024 Germany floods ($1 million).
Segment Expenses. Commission and brokerage expenses increased by 8.9% to $121 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $111 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. Commission and brokerage expenses increased by 8.6% to $233 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $215 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The increases were mainly due to changes in the mix of business.
Segment other underwriting expenses increased to $174 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $154 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. Segment other underwriting expenses increased to $339 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $300 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. These increases were mainly due to the impact of the increase in premiums earned and increased expenses related to the continued investment of the international insurance platform.
Other.
The Other segment includes the results of our sports and leisure business sold in October 2024, consisting of policies written prior to the sale and polices renewed and certain new business written on the Company’s paper post-sale. It also includes run-off A&E exposures, certain discontinued insurance programs primarily written prior to 2012 and certain discontinued insurance and reinsurance coverage classes. The Other segment does not generally sell insurance or reinsurance products but is responsible for the management of existing policies and settlement of related losses.
The following table presents the underwriting results and ratios for the Other segment for the periods indicated:

Incurred losses and LAE increased by 2.3% to $87 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $85 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The increase in incurred losses was due to $20 million of catastrophe losses related to the sports and leisure business and a $20 million strengthening of reserves on the current accident year on lines within this segment.
FINANCIAL CONDITION
Investments. Total investments were $42.4 billion at June 30, 2025, an increase of $2.4 billion compared to $40.0 billion at December 31, 2024. The rise in investments was primarily related to an increase in fixed maturities - available for sale
due to an overall net purchase of $3.4 billion, partially offset by a decrease in short-term investment due to an overall net sale of $2.3 billion during the six months ended June 30, 2025.
The Company’s limited partnership investments are comprised of limited partnerships that invest in private equity, private credit and private real estate. Generally, the limited partnerships are reported on a month or quarter lag. We receive annual audited financial statements for all the limited partnerships, which are prepared using fair value accounting in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board guidance. For the quarterly reports, the Company reviews the financial reports for any unusual changes in carrying value. If the Company becomes aware of a significant decline in value during the lag reporting period, the loss will be recorded in the period in which the Company identifies the decline.
The table below summarizes the composition and characteristics of our investment portfolio for the periods indicated.

Changes in premiums earned and business mix, reserve re-estimations, catastrophe losses and changes in catastrophe loss reserves and claim settlement activity all impact loss and LAE reserves by segment and in total.
Our carried loss and LAE reserves represent management’s best estimate of our ultimate liability for unpaid claims. We continuously re-evaluate our reserves, including re-estimates of prior period reserves, taking into consideration all available information and, in particular, newly reported loss and claim experience. Changes in reserves resulting from
such re-evaluations are reflected in incurred losses in the period when the re-evaluation is made. Our analytical methods and processes operate at multiple levels, including individual contracts, groupings of like contracts, classes and lines of business, internal business units, segments, accident years, legal entities, and in the aggregate. In order to set appropriate reserves, we make qualitative and quantitative analyses and judgments at these various levels. We utilize actuarial science, business expertise and management judgment in a manner intended to ensure the accuracy and consistency of our reserving practices. Management’s best estimate is developed through collaboration with actuarial, underwriting, claims, legal and finance departments and culminates with the input of reserve committees. Each segment reserve committee includes the participation of the relevant parties from actuarial, finance, claims and segment senior management and has the responsibility for recommending and approving management’s best estimate. Reserves are further reviewed by Everest’s Chief Reserving Actuary and senior management. The objective of this process is to determine a single best estimate viewed by management to be the best estimate of its ultimate loss liability. Nevertheless, our reserves are estimates and are subject to variation, which may be significant.
There can be no assurance that reserves for, and losses from, claim obligations will not increase in the future, possibly by a material amount. However, we believe that our existing reserves and reserving methodologies lessen the probability that any such increase would have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
Asbestos and Environmental Exposures. A&E exposures represent a separate exposure group for monitoring and evaluating reserve adequacy. The results of run-off A&E exposures are included within the Company’s Other segment. The following table summarizes the outstanding loss reserves with respect to A&E reserves on both a gross and net of retrocessions basis for the periods indicated.
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| At June 30, | | At December 31, |
| (Dollars in millions) | 2025 | | 2024 |
| Gross reserves | $ | 241 | | | $ | 260 | |
| Ceded reserves | (18) | | | (17) | |
| Net reserves | $ | 223 | | | $ | 242 | |
(Some amounts may not reconcile due to rounding.)
With respect to asbestos only, at June 30, 2025, we had net asbestos loss reserves of $198 million, or 88.8%, of total net A&E reserves, all of which was for assumed business. At June 30, 2025, we had gross asbestos loss reserves of $216 million, or 89.6% of total gross A&E reserves, all of which was for assumed business.
Ultimate loss projections for A&E liabilities cannot be accomplished using standard actuarial techniques. We believe that our A&E reserves represent management’s best estimate of the ultimate liability; however, there can be no assurance that ultimate loss payments will not exceed such reserves, perhaps by a significant amount.
Industry analysts use the “survival ratio” to compare the A&E reserves among companies with such liabilities. The survival ratio is typically calculated by dividing a company’s current net reserves by the three-year average of annual paid losses. Hence, the survival ratio equals the number of years that it would take to exhaust the current reserves if future loss payments were to continue at historical levels. Using this measurement, our net three-year asbestos survival ratio was 6.7 years at June 30, 2025. These metrics can be skewed by individual large settlements occurring in the prior three years and therefore may not be indicative of the timing of future payments.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Capital. Shareholders’ equity at June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 was $15.0 billion and $13.9 billion, respectively. Management’s objective in managing capital is to ensure that the Company’s overall capital level, as well as the capital levels of its operating subsidiaries, exceed the amounts required by regulators, the amount needed to support our current financial strength ratings from rating agencies and our own economic capital models. The Company’s capital has historically exceeded these benchmark levels.
Our two main operating companies, Everest Reinsurance (Bermuda) Ltd. (“Bermuda Re”) and Everest Reinsurance Company (“Everest Re”), are regulated by the Bermuda Monetary Authority and the State of Delaware’s Department of Insurance, respectively. Both regulatory bodies have their own capital adequacy models based on statutory capital as opposed to GAAP basis equity. Failure to meet the required statutory capital levels could result in various regulatory restrictions, including restrictions on business activity and the payment of dividends to their parent companies.
The regulatory targeted capital and the actual statutory capital for Bermuda Re and Everest Re were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Bermuda Re (1) | | Everest Re (2) |
| At December 31, | | At December 31, |
| (Dollars in millions) | 2024 | | 2023 | | 2024 | | 2023 |
| Regulatory targeted capital | $ | 3,151 | | | $ | 2,669 | | | $ | 4,799 | | | $ | 4,242 | |
| Actual capital | $ | 4,323 | | | $ | 3,711 | | | $ | 8,126 | | | $ | 6,963 | |
(1) Regulatory targeted capital represents the target capital level from the applicable year's Bermuda Solvency Capital Requirement calculation.
(2) Regulatory targeted capital represents 200% of the Risk Based Capital authorized control level calculation for the applicable year.
Our financial strength ratings, as determined by A.M. Best, S&P and Moody’s, are important, as they provide our customers and investors with an independent assessment of our financial strength using a rating scale that provides for relative comparisons. We continue to possess significant financial flexibility and access to debt and equity markets as a result of our financial strength, as evidenced by the financial strength ratings assigned by independent rating agencies.
We maintain our own economic capital models to monitor and project our overall capital, as well as the capital at our operating subsidiaries. A key input to the economic models is projected income, and this input is continually compared to actual results, which may require a change in the capital strategy.
We model our potential exposure to catastrophe losses arising from a single event. Projected catastrophe losses are generally summarized in terms of probable maximum loss (“PML”). A full discussion on PMLs is included in our December 31, 2024 Form 10-K filing in Part 2, Item 7 (MD&A) in “Liquidity and Capital Resources” section. We focus on the projected net economic loss from a catastrophe in a given zone as compared to our shareholders’ equity. Economic loss is the PML exposure, net of third party reinsurance, reduced by estimated reinstatement premiums to renew coverage and estimated income taxes. In our December 31, 2024 Form 10-K, we reported that our projected net economic loss from our largest projected 100-year event represented approximately 11.0% of our December 31, 2024 shareholders’ equity. During the first half of 2025, our net exposure to catastrophes has changed due to the market conditions and business decisions. As a result, our projected net economic loss from our largest 100-year event in a given zone represents approximately 12.2% of our June 30, 2025 shareholders’ equity.
The table below reflects the Company’s PML exposure, net of third party reinsurance at various return periods for its top zones/perils (as ranked by largest 1 in 100 year economic loss) based on projection data as of July 1, 2025.

For the six months ended June 30, 2025, we repurchased 1,154,883 of our common shares at a cost of $400 million in the open market and paid $169 million in common share dividends to enhance long-term expected returns to our shareholders. During fiscal year 2024, we repurchased 536,469 of our common shares at a cost of $200 million in the open market and paid $334 million in common share dividends. From time to time, we may enter into a Rule 10b5-1 repurchase plan to facilitate the repurchase of shares, repurchase shares in open market transactions, privately
negotiated transactions or otherwise. On November 7, 2024, our existing Board authorization to purchase up to 32 million of our shares was increased by 10 million shares to authorize the purchase of up to 42 million shares. As of June 30, 2025, we had repurchased 32.5 million shares under this authorization. During the second quarter of 2025, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly common stock dividend of $2.00 per share. The common stock dividend was paid on June 13, 2025 for holders of record as of May 28, 2025.
We may continue, from time to time, to seek to retire portions of our outstanding debt securities through cash repurchases, in open-market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. Such repurchases, if any, will be subject to and depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. The amounts involved in any such transactions, individually or in the aggregate, may be material.
Liquidity. Our liquidity requirements are generally met from positive cash flow from operations. Positive cash flow results from reinsurance and insurance premiums being collected prior to disbursements for claims, with disbursements generally taking place over an extended period after the collection of premiums, sometimes a period of many years. Collected premiums are generally invested, prior to their use in such disbursements, and investment income provides additional funding for loss payments. Our net cash flows from operating activities were $2.0 billion and $2.4 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Additionally, these cash flows reflected net catastrophe loss payments of $481 million and $365 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and net tax payments of $16 million and $203 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
If disbursements for losses and LAE, policy acquisition costs and other operating expenses were to exceed premium inflows, cash flow from reinsurance and insurance operations would be negative. The effect on cash flow from insurance operations would be partially offset by cash flow from investment income. Additionally, cash inflows from investment maturities of both short-term investments and longer-term maturities are available to supplement other operating cash flows. We do not expect to supplement negative insurance operations cash flows with investment dispositions.
As the timing of payments for losses and LAE cannot be predicted with certainty, we maintain portfolios of long-term invested assets with varying maturities, along with short-term investments that provide additional liquidity for payment of claims. At June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we held cash and short-term investments of $4.4 billion and $6.3 billion, respectively. Our short-term investments are generally readily marketable and can be converted to cash. In addition to these cash and short-term investments, at June 30, 2025, we had $1.2 billion of fixed maturity securities - available for sale maturing within one year or less, $11.1 billion maturing within one to five years and $7.7 billion maturing after five years. We believe that these fixed maturity securities, in conjunction with the short-term investments and positive cash flow from operations, provide ample sources of liquidity for the expected payment of losses and LAE in the near future. We do not anticipate selling a significant amount of securities to pay losses and LAE. At June 30, 2025, we had $287 million of net pre-tax unrealized depreciation related to fixed maturity - available for sale securities, comprised of $870 million of pre-tax unrealized depreciation and $583 million of pre-tax unrealized appreciation.
Management generally expects annual positive cash flow from operations. However, given catastrophic events observed in recent periods, cash flow from operations may decline and could become negative in the near term as significant claim payments are made related to the catastrophes. However, as indicated above, the Company has access to ample liquidity to settle its catastrophe claims and also may receive payments under the catastrophe bond program and the Mt. Logan Re collateralized reinsurance arrangement.
In addition to our cash flows from operations and liquid investments, Everest Re is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York (“FHLBNY”), which allows Everest Re to borrow up to 10% of its statutory admitted assets. As of June 30, 2025, Everest Re had statutory admitted assets of approximately $32.4 billion which provides borrowing capacity of up to approximately $3.2 billion. As of June 30, 2025, Everest Re had $1.0 billion of borrowings outstanding, which begin to expire in 2025. See Note 7 – Credit Facilities to the Notes to the consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item I of this Form 10-Q for further details.
Market Sensitive Instruments.
U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) Registrants are required to clarify and expand upon the existing financial statement disclosure requirements for derivative financial instruments, derivative commodity instruments and other financial instruments (collectively, “market sensitive instruments”). We do not generally enter into market sensitive instruments for trading purposes.
Our current investment strategy seeks to maximize after-tax income through a high quality, diversified, fixed maturity portfolio, while maintaining an adequate level of liquidity. Our mix of investments is adjusted periodically, consistent
with our current and projected operating results and market conditions. The fixed maturity securities in the investment portfolio are comprised of available for sale and held to maturity securities. Additionally, we have invested in equity securities.
The overall investment strategy considers the scope of present and anticipated Company operations. In particular, estimates of the financial impact resulting from non-investment asset and liability transactions, together with our capital structure and other factors, are used to develop a net liability analysis. This analysis includes estimated payout characteristics for which our investments provide liquidity. This analysis is considered in the development of specific investment strategies for asset allocation, duration and credit quality. The change in overall market sensitive risk exposure principally reflects the asset changes that took place during the period.
Interest Rate Risk. Our $44.3 billion cash and invested assets portfolio at June 30, 2025 is principally comprised of fixed maturity securities, which are generally subject to interest rate risk and some foreign currency exchange rate risk, and some equity securities, which are subject to price fluctuations and some foreign exchange rate risk. The overall economic impact of the foreign exchange risks on the investment portfolio is partially mitigated by changes in the dollar value of foreign currency denominated liabilities and their associated income statement impact.
Interest rate risk is the potential change in value of the fixed maturity securities portfolio from a change in market interest rates. In a declining interest rate environment, interest rate risk includes prepayment risk on the $8.1 billion of mortgage-backed securities in the $34.1 billion fixed maturity portfolio. Prepayment risk results from potential accelerated principal payments that shorten the average life, and thus, the expected yield of the security.
The table below displays the potential impact of market value fluctuations and after-tax unrealized appreciation on our fixed maturity portfolio (including $2.5 billion of short-term investments) for the period indicated based on upward and downward parallel and immediate 100 and 200 basis point shifts in interest rates. For legal entities with a U.S. dollar functional currency, this modeling was performed on each security individually. To generate appropriate price estimates on mortgage-backed securities, changes in prepayment expectations under different interest rate environments were taken into account. For legal entities with a non-U.S. dollar functional currency, the effective duration of the involved portfolio of securities was used as a proxy for the market value change under the various interest rate change scenarios.
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

| Total Fair Value | $ | 39,192 | | $ | 37,905 | | $ | 36,619 | | $ | 35,333 | | $ | 34,046 |

| After-tax from Base ($) | $ | 2,081 | | $ | 1,041 | | $ | — | | $ | (1,041) | | $ | (2,081) |
We had $32.5 billion and $29.9 billion of gross reserves for losses and LAE as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. These amounts are recorded at their nominal value, as opposed to present value, which would reflect a discount adjustment to reflect the time value of money. Since losses are paid out over a period of time, the present value of the reserves is less than the nominal value. As interest rates rise, the present value of the reserves decreases and, conversely, as interest rates decline, the present value increases. These movements are similar to the interest rate impacts on the fair value of investments held. While the difference between present value and nominal value is not reflected in our financial statements, our financial results will include investment income over time from the investment portfolio until the claims are paid. Our loss and loss reserve obligations have an expected duration of approximately 4.0 years, which is reasonably consistent with our fixed income portfolio. If we were to discount our loss and LAE reserves, net of ceded reserves, the discount would be approximately $5.1 billion resulting in a discounted reserve balance of approximately $24.2 billion, representing approximately 66.0% of the value of the fixed maturity investment portfolio funds.
Foreign Currency Risk. Foreign currency risk is the potential change in value, income and cash flow arising from adverse changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Each of our non-U.S./Bermuda operations maintains capital in the currency of the country of its geographic location consistent with local regulatory guidelines. Our operating entities may conduct business in local currency, as well as the currency of other countries in which they operate. The primary foreign currency exposures for these operations are the British Pound Sterling, the Canadian Dollar, the Euro and the Singapore Dollar. We mitigate foreign exchange exposure by generally matching the currency and duration of our assets to our corresponding operating liabilities. In accordance with GAAP guidance, the impact on the fair value of available for sale
fixed maturities due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates, in relation to functional currency, is reflected as part of other comprehensive income. Conversely, the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, in relation to functional currency, on other assets and liabilities is reflected through net income as a component of other income (expense). In addition, we translate the assets, liabilities and income of non-U.S. dollar functional currency legal entities to the U.S. dollar. This translation amount is reported as a component of other comprehensive income.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Market Risk Instruments. See “Liquidity and Capital Resources - Market Sensitive Instruments” in Part I – Item 2 of this Form 10-Q.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
As of the end of the period covered by this report, our management carried out an evaluation, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)). Based on their evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Our management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, also conducted an evaluation of our internal control over financial reporting to determine whether any changes occurred during the quarter covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. Based on that evaluation, there has been no such change during the quarter covered by this report.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
In the ordinary course of business, the Company is involved in lawsuits, arbitrations and other formal and informal dispute resolution procedures, the outcomes of which will determine the Company’s rights and obligations under insurance and reinsurance agreements. In some disputes, the Company seeks to enforce its rights under an agreement or to collect funds owing to it. In other matters, the Company is resisting attempts by others to collect funds or enforce alleged rights. These disputes arise from time to time and are ultimately resolved through both informal and formal means, including negotiated resolution, arbitration and litigation. In all such matters, the Company believes that its positions are legally and commercially reasonable. The Company considers the statuses of these proceedings when determining its reserves for unpaid loss and LAE.
Aside from litigation and arbitrations related to these insurance and reinsurance agreements, the Company is not a party to any other material litigation or arbitration.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
There have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in Item 1A. “Risk Factors” contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Vacancies on the Board (a) The Board shall have the power from time to time and at any time to appoint any individual as a Director to fill a vacancy on the Board occurring as the result of the death, disability, disqualification, resignation or removal of any Director or if such Director’s office is otherwise vacated and to appoint an Alternate Director to any Director so appointed. A Director so appointed shall hold office for the balance of the term of such vacant Board position or until such Director’s successor is elected or appointed or such Director’s office is otherwise vacated. (b) The Board may act notwithstanding any vacancy in its number but, if and so long as its number is reduced below the number fixed by these Bye-laws as the minimum number necessary for the transaction of business at meetings of the Board, the continuing Directors or Director may, notwithstanding that the number of Directors is below the number fixed by or in accordance with these Bye-laws as the quorum or that there is only one continuing Director, act for the purpose of (i) filling vacancies on the Board, (ii) summoning a general meeting of the Company or (iii) preserving the assets of the Company, but not for any other purpose.

(b) Any indemnification under this Bye-law 30, unless ordered by a court, shall be made by the Company only as authorised in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of such Person is proper in the circumstances because such Person has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in paragraph (a) of this

15 Bye-law 30. Such determination shall be made (i) by the Board by a majority vote of disinterested Directors or (ii) if a majority of the disinterested Directors so directs, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion or (iii) by the Members. (c) Expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by any Director, Secretary, other Officer or employee of the Company in defending any civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding or threat thereof for which indemnification is sought pursuant to paragraph (a) of this Bye-law 30 shall be paid by the Company in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such Person to repay such amount if it shall be ultimately determined that such Person is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company as authorised in these Bye-laws or otherwise pursuant to applicable law; provided, that if it is determined by either (i) a majority vote of Directors who were not parties to such action, suit or proceeding or (ii) if a majority of the disinterested Directors so directs, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion, that there is no reasonable basis to believe that such Person is entitled to be indemnified by the Company as authorised in these Bye-laws or otherwise pursuant to applicable law, then no expense shall be advanced in accordance with this paragraph (c) of this Bye-law 30. The Company, in the discretion of the Board, may pay such expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by agents of the Company or by Persons serving at the request of the Company in any other capacity for or on behalf of the Company upon the receipt of the aforesaid undertaking and such terms and conditions, if any, as the Board deems appropriate. (d) The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided in these Bye- laws shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification and advancement of expenses may now or hereafter be entitled under any statute, agreement, vote of Members or otherwise, both as to action in an official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office. (e) The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, this Bye-law 30 shall, unless otherwise provided when authorised or ratified, continue as to a Person who has ceased to hold the position for which such Person is entitled to be indemnified or advanced expenses and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such a Person. (f) The Company may purchase and maintain insurance to protect itself and any Director, Officer or other Person entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Bye-law to the fullest extent permitted by law. (g) No amendment or repeal of any provision of this Bye-law 30 shall alter, to the detriment of any Person, the right of such Person to the indemnification or advancement of expenses related to a claim based on an act or failure to act which took place prior to such amendment, repeal or termination. 31. Waiver of claim The Company and each Member agrees to waive any claim or right of action it might have, whether individually or by or in the right of the Company, against any Director or Officer on account of any action taken by such Director or Officer, or the failure of such Director or Officer to take any action in the performance of his or her duties with or for

16 the Company; provided, that such waiver shall not extend to any matter in respect of any fraud or dishonesty which may attach to such Director or Officer. MEETINGS 32.

Meeting called on requisition of Members Notwithstanding anything herein, the Board shall, on the requisition of Members holding at the date of the deposit of the requisition not less than one-tenth of such of the paid-up share capital of the Company as at the date of the deposit carries the right to vote at general meetings of the Company, forthwith proceed to convene a special general meeting of the Company and the provisions of Section 74 of the Act shall apply. 36. Short notice A general meeting of the Company shall, notwithstanding that it is called by shorter notice than that specified in these Bye-laws, be deemed to have been properly called if it is so agreed by (a) all the Members entitled to attend and vote thereat in the case of an annual general meeting; and (b) a majority in number of the Members having the right to attend and vote at the meeting, being a majority together holding not less than ninety-five percent (95%) in nominal value of the shares conferring a right to attend and vote thereat in the case of a special general meeting.

Unless the meeting is so adjourned to a specific date and time, fresh notice of the date, time and place for the resumption of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each Member in accordance with the provisions of these Bye-laws. No business shall be transacted at any general meeting unless a quorum is present when the meeting proceeds to business and continues throughout the meeting, but the absence of a quorum shall not preclude the appointment, choice or election of a chairman of the meeting which shall not be treated as part of the business of the meeting. 39. Adjournment of meetings The chairman of a general meeting may, with the consent of the Members at any general meeting whether or not a quorum is present (and shall if so directed), adjourn the meeting.

18 41. Attendance at meetings Unless the Chairman or the Board determines otherwise, Members may participate in any general meeting by means of such telephone, electronic or other communication facilities as permit all individuals participating in the meeting to communicate with each other simultaneously and instantaneously, and participation in such a meeting shall constitute presence in person at such meeting; provided, that no Member may participate in any such meeting while in the United States. 42. Written resolutions (a) Subject to paragraph (f) of this Bye-law 42, anything which may be done by resolution of the Company in general meeting or by resolution of a meeting of any class of the Members of the Company, may, without a meeting and without any previous notice being required, be done by resolution in writing signed by, or, in the case of a Member that is a corporation whether or not a company within the meaning of the Act, on behalf of, all the Members who at the date of the resolution or, if earlier, the Record Date would be entitled to attend the meeting and vote on the resolution. (b) A resolution in writing may be signed by, or, in the case of a Member that is a corporation whether or not a company within the meaning of the Act, on behalf of, all the Members, or any class thereof, in as many counterparts as may be necessary. (c) For the purposes of this Bye-law 42, the date of the resolution is the date when the resolution is signed by, or, in the case of a Member that is a corporation whether or not a company within the meaning of the Act, on behalf of, the last Member to sign and any reference in any Bye-law to the date of passing of a resolution is, in relation to a resolution made in accordance with this Bye-law, a reference to such date. Any resolution in writing may be signed within or outside the United States; provided, that the last Member to sign the resolution must sign outside of the United States. (d) A resolution in writing made in accordance with this Bye-law is as valid as if it had been passed by the Company in general meeting or by a meeting of the relevant class of Members, as the case may be, and any reference in any Bye-law to a meeting at which a resolution is passed or to Members voting in favor of a resolution shall be construed accordingly. (e) A resolution in writing made in accordance with this Bye-law shall constitute minutes for the purposes of Sections 81 and 82 of the Act. (f) This Bye-law shall not apply to: (i) a resolution passed pursuant to Section 89(5) of the Act; or (ii) a resolution passed for the purpose of removing a Director before the expiration of his term of office under these Bye-laws. 43. Attendance of Directors The Directors of the Company shall be entitled to receive notice of and to attend and be heard at any general meeting. 44. Voting at meetings Subject to the provisions of the Act and these Bye-laws, any question proposed for the consideration of the Members at any general meeting shall be decided by the affirmative

19 vote of a majority of the votes cast in accordance with the provisions of these Bye-laws and in the case of an equality of votes the resolution shall fail. 45. Voting on show of hands At any general meeting a resolution put to the vote of the meeting shall, in the first instance, be voted upon by a show of hands and, subject to any rights or restrictions for the time being lawfully attached to any class of shares and subject to the provisions of these Bye-laws, every Member present in person and every individual holding a valid proxy at such meeting shall be entitled to one vote and shall cast such vote by raising his or her hand. 46. Decision of chairman At any general meeting a declaration by the chairman of the meeting that a question proposed for consideration has, on a show of hands, been carried, or carried unanimously, or by a particular majority, or lost, and an entry to that effect in a book containing the minutes of the proceedings of the Company shall, subject to the provisions of these Bye-laws, be conclusive evidence of that fact. 47. Demand for a poll (a) Notwithstanding the provisions of the immediately preceding two Bye-laws, at any general meeting of the Company, in respect of any question proposed for the consideration of the Members (whether before or on the declaration of the result of a show of hands as provided for in these Bye-laws), a poll may be demanded by any of the following Persons: (i) the chairman of such meeting; or (ii) at least three Members present in person or represented by proxy; or (iii) any Member or Members present in person or represented by proxy and holding between them not less than one-tenth (1/10) of the total voting rights of all the Members having the right to vote at such meeting; or (iv) any Member or Members present in person or represented by proxy holding shares conferring the right to attend and vote at such meeting on which an aggregate sum has been paid up equal to not less than one-tenth (1/10) of the total sum paid up on all Common Shares. (b) Where, in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (a) of this Bye-law 47, a poll is demanded, subject to any rights or restrictions for the time being lawfully attached to any class of shares and subject to the provisions of these Bye-laws, every Member present in person or by proxy at such meeting shall have one vote for each share conferring the right to attend and vote at such meeting of which such Member is the registered holder or for which such a proxyholder holds a proxy and such votes shall be counted in the manner set out in paragraph (d) of this Bye-law 47 or, in the case of a general meeting at which one or more Members or proxyholders are present by telephone, in such manner as the chairman of the meeting may direct, and the result of such poll shall be deemed to be the resolution of the meeting at which the poll was

20 demanded and shall replace any previous resolution upon the same matter which has been the subject of a show of hands. (c) A poll demanded in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (a) of this Bye-law 47, for the purpose of electing a chairman of the meeting or on a question of adjournment, shall be taken forthwith and a poll demanded on any other question shall be taken in such manner and at such time and place as the chairman (or acting chairman) may direct and any business other than that upon which a poll has been demanded may be proceeded with pending the taking of the poll. (d) Where a vote is taken by poll, each Member present in person or by proxy and entitled to vote shall be furnished with a ballot on which such Member or proxyholder shall record his or her vote in such manner as shall be determined at the meeting having regard to the nature of the question on which the vote is taken, and each ballot paper shall be signed or initialed or otherwise marked so as to identify the voter and the registered holder in the case of a proxy. The Board may appoint one or more inspectors to act at any general meeting where a vote is taken by a poll. Each inspector shall take and sign an oath faithfully to exercise the duties of inspector at such meeting with strict impartiality and according to the best of his, her or its ability. The inspectors shall determine the number of shares outstanding and the voting power of each by reference to the Register of Members, the number of shares represented at the meeting, the existence of a quorum, the validity and effect of proxies and examine and count all ballots and determine the results of any vote. The inspector shall also hear and determine challenges and questions arising in connection with the right to vote. No Director or candidate for the office of Director shall act as an inspector. The determination and decision of the inspectors shall be final and binding. 48. Seniority of joint holders voting In the case of joint holders, the vote of the senior who tenders a vote, whether in person or by proxy, shall be accepted to the exclusion of the votes of the other joint holders, and for this purpose seniority shall be determined by the order in which the names stand in the Register of Members. 49. Instrument of proxy (a) Every Member entitled to vote has the right to do so either in person or by one or more Persons authorised by a written proxy executed and delivered in accordance with these Bye-laws. The instrument appointing a proxy shall be in writing under the hand of the appointor or of his or her attorney authorised by him or her in writing or, if the appointor is a corporation, either under its seal or under the hand of an officer, attorney or other person authorised to sign the same. (b) Any Member may appoint a standing proxy or (if a corporation) representative by depositing at the Registered Office, or at such place or places as the Board may otherwise specify from time to time for the purpose, a proxy or (if a corporation) an authorisation and such proxy or authorisation shall be valid for all general meetings and adjournments thereof or, resolutions in writing, as the case may be, until notice of revocation is received at the Registered Office, or at such place or places as the Board may otherwise specify from time to time for the purpose. A Person so authorised as a proxy or representative shall be entitled to exercise the same power on behalf of the grantor of the authority as the grantor could exercise and the grantor shall

21 for the purposes of these Bye-laws be deemed to be present in person at any such meeting if a Person so authorised is present at the meeting. Where a standing proxy or authorisation exists, its operation shall be deemed to have been suspended at any general meeting or adjournment thereof at which the Member is present or in respect to which the Member has specially appointed a proxy or representative. The Board may from time to time require such evidence as it shall deem necessary as to the due execution and continuing validity of any such standing proxy or authorisation and the operation of any such standing proxy or authorisation shall be deemed to be suspended until such time as the Board determines that it has received the requested evidence or other evidence satisfactory to it. (c) Subject to paragraph (b) of this Bye-law 49, the instrument appointing a proxy together with such other evidence as to its due execution as the Board may from time to time require shall be delivered at the Registered Office (or at such place or places as may be specified in the notice convening the meeting or in any notice of any adjournment or, in either case or the case of a written resolution, in any document sent therewith) not less than 24 hours or such other period as the Board may determine, prior to the holding of the relevant meeting or adjourned meeting at which the individual named in the instrument proposes to vote or, in the case of a poll taken subsequently to the date of a meeting or adjourned meeting, before the time appointed for the taking of the poll, or, in the case of a written resolution, prior to the effective date of the written resolution and in default the instrument of proxy shall not be treated as valid. (d) Instruments of proxy shall be in any common form or other form as the Board may approve and the Board may, if it thinks fit, send out with the notice of any meeting or any written resolution forms of instruments of proxy for use at that meeting or in connection with that written resolution. The instrument of proxy shall be deemed to confer authority to demand or join in demanding a poll and to vote on any amendment of a written resolution or amendment of a resolution put to the meeting for which it is given as the proxy thinks fit. The instrument of proxy shall unless the contrary is stated therein be valid as well for any adjournment of the meeting as for the meeting to which it relates. (e) A vote given in accordance with the terms of an instrument of proxy shall be valid notwithstanding the previous death or unsoundness of mind of the principal, or revocation of the instrument of proxy or of the authority under which it was executed, provided, that no intimation in writing of such death, insanity or revocation shall have been received by the Company at the Registered Office (or such other place as may be specified for the delivery of instruments of proxy in the notice convening the meeting or other documents sent therewith) at least one hour before the commencement of the meeting or adjourned meeting, or the taking of the poll, or the day before the effective date of any written resolution at which the instrument of proxy is used. (f) Subject to the Act, the Board may at its discretion, or the chairman of the relevant meeting may at his or her discretion with respect to such meeting only, waive any of the provisions of these Bye-laws related to proxies or authorisations and, in particular, may accept such verbal or other assurances as it thinks fit as to the right of any person to attend and vote on behalf of any Member at general meetings or to sign written resolutions.

22 50. Representation of corporations at meetings A corporation which is a Member may, by written instrument, authorise such Person or Persons as it thinks fit to act as its representative at any meeting of the Members and the Person or Persons so authorised shall be entitled to exercise the same powers on behalf of the corporation which such Person or Persons represent as that corporation could exercise if it were an individual Member. Such corporation shall for the purpose of these Bye-laws be deemed to be present in person at any such meeting if a Person so authorised is present at the meeting. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the chairman of the meeting may accept such assurances as he or she thinks fit as to the right of any individual or individuals to attend and vote at general meetings on behalf of a corporation which is a Member. SHARE CAPITAL AND SHARES 51. Authorisation of shares (a) Upon adoption of these Bye-laws, the share capital of the Company shall initially be divided into two classes of shares consisting of (i) two hundred million (200,000,000) Common Shares and (ii) fifty million (50,000,000) Preferred Shares. The Board may create classes of shares and may increase or decrease the number of shares of any class as it sees fit. The Board also may, subject to the Act, cancel, redeem or purchase shares of any class of shares. (b) Subject to the provisions of these Bye-laws, the Common Shares shall entitle the holders thereof to: (i) one vote per Common Share; (ii) such dividends as the Board may from time to time declare; (iii) in the event of a winding-up or dissolution of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary or for the purpose of an amalgamation, a reorganization or otherwise or upon any distribution of capital, share equally and ratably in the assets of the Company, if any, remaining after the payment of all debts and liabilities of the Company and the liquidation preference of any issued and outstanding Preferred Shares or other shares ranking ahead of the Common Shares; and (iv) generally be entitled to enjoy all of the rights attaching to shares. (c) Subject to these Bye-laws, the Act and to any resolution of the Members to the contrary, the unissued share capital of the Company (as it stands from time to time) shall be at the disposal of the Board and the Board shall have power to issue, offer, allot, exchange or otherwise dispose of any unissued shares of the Company, at such times, for such consideration and on such terms and conditions as it may determine and any shares or class of shares may be issued as a new or existing class of shares and with such preferred, deferred or other special rights or such restrictions or as comprising a new or existing class of shares, whether in regard to dividend, voting, return of capital or otherwise as the Board may from time to time prescribe and the Board may generally exercise the powers set out in Sections 45(1)(b), (c), (d) and (e) of the Act. Further the Board shall have the power to issue, offer, allot, exchange or otherwise dispose of

23 options, warrants or other rights to purchase or acquire shares or securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares (including any employee benefit plan providing for the issuance of shares or options or rights in respect thereof), at such times, for such consideration and on such terms and conditions as it may determine. (d) The Board is authorised, subject to the Act, to issue the Preferred Shares in series, at such times, for such consideration and on such terms and conditions as it may determine with similar or different rights or restrictions as any other series and to establish from time to time the number of Preferred Shares to be included in each such series, and to fix the designation, powers, preferences, voting rights, dividend rates, redemption provisions, and other rights, qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof. The terms of any series of Preferred Shares shall be set forth in a Certificate of Designation in the minutes of the Board meeting authorising the issuance of such Preferred Shares and such Certificate of Designations shall be attached as an exhibit to these Bye-laws, but shall not form part of these Bye-laws, and may be examined by any Member on request. The rights attaching to any Common Share or any Preferred Share shall be deemed not to be altered by the allotment of any other Preferred Share even if such Preferred Share does or will rank in priority for payment of a dividend or in respect of capital or which confer on the holder thereof voting rights more favorable than those conferred by such Common Share or existing Preferred Share and shall not otherwise be deemed to be altered by the creation or issue of further shares ranking pari passu therewith. 52. Limitation on voting rights of controlled shares (a) If and for so long as the aggregate number of Controlled Shares of any Person exceeds the Maximum Percentage of the total voting power of all of the issued and outstanding share capital of the Company (calculated after giving effect to any prior reduction in voting rights attaching to Controlled Shares of other Persons as provided in this Bye-law 52), each such Controlled Share, regardless of the identity of the registered holder thereof, shall confer only a fraction of a vote as determined by the following formula (the “Formula”): (T - C) Divided By (9.1 x C) Where: “T” is the aggregate number of votes conferred by all the issued and outstanding share capital immediately prior to that application of the Formula with respect to any particular Person, adjusted to take into account any prior reduction taken with respect to any other Person pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Bye-law 52 as at the same date; “C” is the number of controlled Shares attributable to such Person. (b) The Formula shall be applied successively as many times as may be necessary to ensure that the number of Controlled Shares of any Person does not exceed the Maximum Percentage of the total voting power of all of the issued and outstanding share capital of the Company at any time. For the purposes of determining the votes exercisable by Persons as at any date, the Formula shall be applied to the shares of each Person in declining order based on the respective numbers of total Controlled Shares attributable to each Person. Thus, the Formula will be applied first to the votes of shares

24 held by the Person to whom the largest number of total Controlled Shares is attributable and thereafter sequentially with respect to the Person with the next largest number of total Controlled Shares. In each case, calculations shall be made on the basis of the aggregate number of votes conferred by the shares as of such date, as reduced by the application of the Formula to any issued shares of any Person with a larger number of total Controlled Shares as of such date. (c) Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Bye-law 52, having applied the provisions thereof as best as they consider reasonably practicable, the Board may make such final adjustments to the aggregate number of votes attaching to the Controlled Shares of any Person that it considers fair and reasonable in all the circumstances to ensure that the number of Controlled Shares of any Person does not exceed the Maximum Percentage of the total voting power of all of the issued and outstanding share capital of the Company at any time. (d) Notwithstanding anything in these Bye-laws, this Bye-law 52 shall not apply for so long as the Company shall have only one Member. 53. Limitations on the power to issue shares (a) Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs (c) and (d) of Bye-law 51, no share may be issued, without prior Board approval, if the Board has reason to believe that the effect of such issuance would cause (i) any Person that is not an Investment Company to beneficially own (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder), in excess of five percent (5%) of any class of issued and outstanding share capital of the Company, (ii) the aggregate number of Controlled Shares of any Person to exceed the Maximum Percentage of any class of issued and outstanding share capital of the Company or (iii) any adverse tax, regulatory or legal consequences to the Company, any of its subsidiaries or any of the Members or any Person who beneficially owns (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder) any of the issued and outstanding share capital of the Company. The restrictions of this paragraph (a) of this Bye-law 53 shall not apply to any issuance of shares to a Person acting as an underwriter in the ordinary course of its business purchasing such shares for resale pursuant to a purchase agreement to which the Company is a party. (b) The Board shall, in connection with the issue of any share, have the power to pay such commissions and brokerage fees and charges as may be permitted by law. (c) The Company shall not give, whether directly or indirectly, whether by means of loan, guarantee, provision of security or otherwise, any financial assistance for the purpose of or in connection with a purchase or subscription made or to be made by any Person of or for any shares in the Company, but nothing in this Bye-law 53 shall prohibit transactions permitted pursuant to Sections 39A, 39B and 39C of the Act. (d) The Company may from time to time do any one or more of the following things: (i) make arrangements on the issue of shares for a difference between the Members in the amounts and times of payments of calls on their shares;

25 (ii) accept from any Member the whole or a part of the amount remaining unpaid on any shares held by such Member, although no part of that amount has been called up; (iii) pay dividends in proportion to the amount paid up on each share where a larger amount is paid up on some shares than on others; and (iv) issue its shares in fractional denominations and deal with such fractions to the same extent as its whole shares and shares in fractional denominations shall have in proportion to the respective fractions represented thereby all of the rights of whole shares including (but without limiting the generality of the foregoing) the right to vote, to receive dividends and distributions and to participate in a winding up. 54. Variation of rights and alteration of share capital (a) If at any time the share capital is divided into different classes of shares, the rights attached to any class (unless otherwise provided by the terms of issue of the shares of that class) may, whether or not the Company is being wound-up, be varied with the consent in writing of the holders of not less than a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of that class or with the sanction of a resolution passed by the holders of not less than a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of that class at a separate general meeting of the holders of the shares of the class held in accordance with Section 47 (7) of the Act. The rights conferred upon the holders of the shares of any class issued with preferred or other rights shall not, unless otherwise expressly provided by the terms of issue of the shares of that class, be deemed to be varied by the creation or issue of further shares ranking pari passu therewith. The rights of the holders of Common Shares shall not be deemed to be varied by the creation or issue of shares with preferred or other rights, which may be effected by the Board as provided in these Bye-laws without any vote or consent of the holders of Common Shares. (b) The Company may from time to time by resolution of the Members alter the conditions of its Memorandum of Association by all or any of those actions listed in Section 45(1) of the Act and accordingly may change the currency denomination of, increase, alter or reduce its share capital in accordance with the provisions of Sections 45 and 46 of the Act; provided, that any resolution of the Members to alter or reduce its share capital be by the affirmative vote of Members representing not less than a majority of the votes conferred by the issued and outstanding shares entitled to vote. Where, on any alteration of share capital, fractions of shares or some other difficulty would arise, the Board may deal with or resolve the same in such manner as it thinks fit including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the issue to Members, as appropriate, of fractions of shares and/or arranging for the sale or transfer of the fractions of shares of Members to a purchaser thereof who shall not be bound to see to the application of the purchase money, nor shall his or her title to the same be affected by any irregularity in, or in invalidity of, the proceedings relating to sale. 55. Purchase of shares by Company (a) Exercise of power to redeem and purchase shares of the Company

26 The Company shall have the power to, and may from time to time, redeem or purchase all or any part of its own shares pursuant to Sections 42 and 42A of the Act. The Board may, at its discretion and without the sanction of a resolution of the Members, authorise any redemption or purchase by the Company of its own shares (all or any part thereof), of any class, at any price (whether at par or above or below par), and so that any share to be so redeemed or purchased may be selected in any manner whatsoever, upon such terms as the Board may in its discretion determine; provided, that such redemption or purchase is effected in accordance with the provisions of the Act. The rights attaching to any share shall be deemed not to be altered (unless such right specifically provides otherwise) by any redemption or purchase by the Company of any of its own shares. (b) Unilateral purchase right Subject to Section 42A of the Act, if the Board has reason to believe that (i) any Person that is not an Investment Company beneficially owns (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder) in excess of five percent (5%) of any class of issued and outstanding share capital of the Company, (ii) the aggregate number of Controlled Shares of any Person exceeds the Maximum Percentage of any class of issued and outstanding share capital of the Company or (iii) the direct or indirect share ownership in the Company of any Person may result in adverse tax, regulatory or legal consequences to the Company, any of its subsidiaries, any of the Members or any Person who beneficially owns (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder) any of the issued and outstanding share capital of the Company, the Company shall have the option, but not the obligation, to redeem or purchase all or any part of the shares so owned (to the extent the Board, in the reasonable exercise of its discretion, determines necessary or advisable to avoid or cure any adverse or potential adverse consequences) for the Repurchase Price by delivering written notice to the Person that owns and, where the registered holder of the shares is not such Person, the Member that holds the shares to be redeemed or purchased specifying the number of shares to be redeemed or purchased and the Repurchase Price therefor (the “Repurchase Notice”). The Company shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to exercise its redemption or purchase option ratably among similarly situated Persons to the extent possible under the circumstances. Within 10 days after the delivery of the Repurchase Notice, the Company or its designee shall redeem or purchase from such Person and such Member (if any), and such Person and such Member (if any), shall sell to the Company or its designee, the number of shares specified in the Repurchase Notice at a mutually agreeable time and place. At such closing, the Company or its designee shall pay to such Person or to such Member (as the Board may consider appropriate) the Repurchase Price by wire transfer of immediately available funds and such Person and such Member (if any), shall deliver to the Company or its designee share certificates representing the redeemed or purchased shares duly endorsed in blank or accompanied by duly executed stock powers. The Company may revoke the Repurchase Notice at any time prior to payment for the shares. (c) Unilateral repurchase right in the event of involuntary transfer If a Person (including without limitation a Member) shall be involuntarily wound up, dissolved or liquidated or shall have entered in respect of it an order for relief under the United States Bankruptcy Code (or any similar law of any applicable jurisdiction) or shall otherwise be required to transfer involuntarily any or all of its shares pursuant to a court

27 order, foreclosure, tax lien, government seizure, death or otherwise, and, in any such case as a result thereof, any or all of such Person’s shares (the “Involuntary Transfer Shares”) shall be actually or purportedly transferred or otherwise disposed of, such Person, or its legal representative or successor, and, where the registered holder of the shares is not such Person, the Member that holds the shares, shall promptly give notice to the Company of such transfer and the Company shall have the option, but not the obligation, to redeem or purchase all or any part of the Involuntary Transfer Shares for the Repurchase Price by delivering a Repurchase Notice to such Person and such Member (if any). Within 10 days after the delivery of the Repurchase Notice, the Company or its designee shall redeem or purchase from such Person and such Member (if any), and such Person and such Member (if any) shall sell to the Company or its designee, the number of Involuntary Transfer Shares specified in the Repurchase Notice at a mutually agreeable time and place. At such closing, the Company or its designee shall pay to such Person or to such Member (as the Board may consider appropriate) the Repurchase Price by wire transfer of immediately available funds and such Person and such Member (if any) shall deliver to the Company or its designee share certificates representing the Involuntary Transfer Shares duly endorsed in blank or accompanied by duly executed stock powers. The Company may revoke the Repurchase Notice at any time prior to the payment for shares. (d) In any circumstances where the Company is entitled to redeem or purchase its own shares by the foregoing provisions of this Bye-law 55, the Company shall also be entitled to acquire such shares as Treasury Shares in accordance with the Act on such terms as the Board shall think fit. All the rights attaching to a Treasury Share shall be suspended and shall not be exercised by the Company while it holds such Treasury Share and, except where required by the Act, all Treasury Shares shall be excluded from the calculation of any percentage or fraction of the share capital, or shares, of the Company. 56. Registered holder of shares (a) The Company shall be entitled to treat the registered holder of any share as the absolute owner thereof and, accordingly, except as ordered by a court of competent jurisdiction or as required by law or as specifically provided in these Bye- laws, no Person shall be recognized by the Company as holding any share upon trust and the Company shall not be bound by or required in any way to recognize (even when having notice thereof) any equitable, contingent, future or partial interest in any share or any interest in any fractional part of a share or (except only as otherwise provided in these Bye-laws or by law) any other right in respect of any share except an absolute right to the entirety thereof in the registered holder. (b) Any dividend, interest or other monies payable in cash in respect of shares may be paid by cheque or draft sent through the post directed to the Member at such Member’s address in the Register of Members or, in the case of joint holders, to such address of the holder first named in the Register of Members, or to such Person and to such address as the holder or joint holders may in writing direct. If two or more Persons are registered as joint holders of any shares, any one can give an effectual receipt for any dividend paid in respect of such shares.

28 57. Death of a joint holder Where two or more Persons are registered as joint holders of a share or shares, then in the event of the death of any joint holder or holders the remaining joint holder or holders shall be absolutely entitled to the said share or shares and the Company shall recognize no claim in respect of the estate of any joint holder except in the case of the last survivor of such joint holders. 58. Share certificates (a) Every Member shall be entitled to a share certificate under the seal of the Company (or a facsimile or representation thereof as the Board may determine) specifying the number and, where appropriate, the class of shares held by such Member and whether the same are fully paid up and, if not, how much has been paid thereon. The Board may determine, either generally or in a particular case, that any or all signatures on share certificates may be printed thereon or affixed by mechanical means. Notwithstanding the provisions of Bye-law 91, the Board may determine that a share certificate need not be signed on behalf of the Company. (b) The Company shall be under no obligation to complete and deliver a share certificate unless specifically called upon to do so by the Person to whom such shares have been allotted. (c) If any such share certificate shall be proved to the satisfaction of the Board to have been worn out, lost, mislaid or destroyed, the Board may cause a new share certificate to be issued and may request an indemnity with or without security for the lost share certificate as it sees fit. REGISTER OF MEMBERS 59. Contents of Register of Members The Board shall cause to be kept in one or more books a Register of Members and shall enter therein the particulars required by the Act. Unless the Board so determines, no Member or intending Member shall be entitled to have entered in the Register of Members any indication of any trust or any equitable, contingent, future or partial interest in any share or any interest in any fractional part of a share and if any such entry exists or is permitted by the Board it shall not be deemed to abrogate any of the provisions of paragraph (a) of Bye-law 56. 60. Inspection of Register of Members (a) The Register of Members shall be open to inspection by Members or other entitled Persons at the Registered Office (or at such other place or places in Bermuda as the Board may from time to time determine) during business hours, subject to such reasonable restrictions as the Board may impose, so that not less than two hours in each normal day of business in Bermuda be allowed for inspection. The Register of Members may, after notice has been given by advertisement in an appointed newspaper to that effect, be closed for any time or times not exceeding in the whole 30 days in each year. (b) Subject to the provisions of the Act, the Company may keep one or more overseas or branch registers in any place, and the Board may make, amend and revoke

29 any such regulations as it may think fit respecting the keeping of such registers and the contents thereof. 61. Setting of record date Notwithstanding any other provision of these Bye-laws, the Board shall fix any date as the record date for: (a) determining the Members entitled to receive any dividend; (b) determining the Members entitled to receive notice of and to vote at any general meeting of the Company and the Board may determine a different record date for any adjournment or postponement thereof; and (c) determining the Members entitled to execute a resolution in writing. TRANSFER OF SHARES 62. Instrument of transfer (a) An instrument of transfer shall be in such common form or other form as the Board or any transfer agent appointed from time to time may accept. Such instrument of transfer shall be signed by or on behalf of the transferor. The transferor shall be deemed to remain the holder of such share until the same has been transferred to the transferee in the Register of Members. (b) The Board may refuse to recognize any instrument of transfer unless it is accompanied by the certificate in respect of the shares to which it relates and by such other evidence as the Board may reasonably require to show the right of the transferor to make the transfer. 63. Restrictions on transfer (a) Subject to the Act, this Bye-law 63 and such other restrictions contained in these Bye-laws and elsewhere as may be applicable, any Member may sell, assign, transfer or otherwise dispose of shares of the Company for which the Member is the registered holder at the time and, upon receipt of a duly executed form of transfer in writing, the Board shall procure the timely registration of the same. If the Board refuses to register a transfer for any reason it shall notify the proposed transferor and transferee within 30 days of such refusal. (b) Without prior Board approval, no transfer of any share shall be registered if the Board has reason to believe that the effect of such transfer would be to (i) increase the number of shares beneficially owned (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder) by any Person that is not an Investment Company to more than five percent (5%) of any class of issued and outstanding share capital of the Company, (ii) to increase the aggregate number of Controlled Shares of any Person to more than the Maximum Percentage of any class of issued and outstanding share capital of the Company or (iii) to result in adverse tax, regulatory or legal consequences to the Company, any of its subsidiaries, any of the Members or any Person who beneficially owns (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder) any of the issued and outstanding share capital of the Company.

30 (c) Without limiting the foregoing, no transfer of any share shall be registered unless all applicable consents, authorisations, permissions or approvals of any governmental body or agency in Bermuda, the United States or any other applicable jurisdiction required to be obtained prior to such transfer shall have been obtained. (d) The registration of transfers may be suspended at such time and for such periods as the Board may from time to time determine; provided, that such registration shall not be suspended for more than 45 days in any period of 365 consecutive days. (e) The Board may, by notice in writing, require any Member, any Person that beneficially owns (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder) any of the issued and outstanding share capital of the Company or any Person proposing to acquire shares of the Company, to certify or otherwise provide to the Board, within 10 Business Days of request, complete and accurate information in writing as to such matters as the Board may request for the purpose of giving effect to Bye-laws 52(a), 52(b), 53(a), 55(b), 55(c) and paragraph (b) of this Bye-law 63, including information in respect of the following matters: (i) the number of shares of the Company in which such Person is legally or beneficially interested; (ii) the Persons who are beneficially interested in shares in respect of which any Member is the registered holder; (iii) the relationship, association or affiliation of such Person with any other Member or Person whether by means of common control or ownership or otherwise; and (iv) any other facts or matters which the Board in its absolute discretion may consider relevant to the determination of the number of shares beneficially owned by any Person or the number of Controlled Shares attributable to any Person. If any Member, any Person that beneficially owns (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder) any of the issued and outstanding share capital of the Company or any proposed acquiror does not respond to any such request within the time specified therein, or if the Board has reason to believe that any certification or other information provided pursuant to any such request is inaccurate or incomplete, the Board may decline to approve any transfer or issuance to which such request relates or may determine to disregard for all purposes the votes attached to any shares held or owned by such Member or Person (and by the registered holder of such shares owned by such Person). (f) The restrictions on transfer authorised or imposed by these Bye-laws shall not be imposed in any circumstances in a way that would interfere with the settlement of trades or transactions entered into through the facilities of a stock exchange on which the shares are listed or traded from time to time; provided, that the Company may decline to register transfers in accordance with these Bye-laws and resolutions of the Board after a settlement has taken place.

31 64. Transfers by joint holders The joint holders of any share or shares may transfer such share or shares to one or more of such joint holders, and the surviving holder or holders of any share or shares previously held by them jointly with a deceased Member may transfer any such share to the executors or administrators of such deceased Member. TRANSMISSION OF SHARES 65. Representative of deceased Member In the case of the death of a Member, the survivor or survivors where the deceased Member was a joint holder, and the legal personal representatives of the deceased Member where the deceased Member was a sole holder, shall be the only persons recognized by the Company as having any title to the deceased Member’s interest in the shares. Nothing herein contained shall release the estate of a deceased joint holder from any liability in respect of any share which had been jointly held by such deceased Member with other persons. Subject to the provisions of Section 52 of the Act, for the purpose of this Bye-law, “legal personal representative” means the executor or administrator of a deceased Member or such other person as the Board may in its absolute discretion decide as being properly authorised to deal with the shares of a deceased Member. 66. Registration on death or bankruptcy Any Person becoming entitled to a share in consequence of the death or bankruptcy of any Member may be registered as a Member upon such evidence as the Board may deem sufficient or may elect to nominate some Person to be registered as a transferee of such share, and in such case the Person becoming entitled shall execute in favor of such nominee an instrument of transfer in a form satisfactory to the Board. On the presentation thereof to the Board, accompanied by such evidence as the Board may require to prove the title of the transferor and such other information as the Board shall deem necessary or appropriate, and the transferee shall be registered as a Member but the Board shall, in either case, have the same right to decline or suspend registration as it would have had in the case of a transfer of the share by that Member before such Member’s death or bankruptcy, as the case may be. 67. Registration Fees A fee may be charged by the Company for registering any transfer, probate, letters of administration, certificate of death or marriage, power of attorney, distringas or stop notice, order of court or other instrument relating to or affecting the title to any share, or otherwise making an entry in the Register of Members relating to any share. DIVIDENDS AND OTHER DISTRIBUTIONS 68. Declaration of dividends by the Board Subject to any rights or restrictions at the time lawfully attached to any class or series of shares and subject to the provisions of these Bye-laws, the Board may, in accordance with Section 54 of the Act, declare a dividend to be paid to the Members, in proportion to the number of shares held by them, and such dividend may be paid in cash or wholly or

32 partly in specie in which case the Board may fix the value for distribution in specie of any assets. 69. Other distributions The Board may declare and make such other distributions (in cash or in specie) to the Members as may be lawfully made out of the assets of the Company. 70. Reserve fund The Board may from time to time before declaring a dividend set aside, out of the surplus or profits of the Company, such sum as it thinks proper as a reserve fund to be used to meet contingencies or for equalizing dividends or for any other special or general purpose. 71. Deduction of Amounts due to the Company The Board may deduct from the dividends or distributions payable to any Member all monies due from such Member to the Company. 72. Unclaimed dividends Any dividend or distribution unclaimed for a period of six years from the date of declaration of such dividend or distribution shall be forfeited and shall revert and belong to the Company and the payment by the Board of any unclaimed dividend or distribution, interest or other sum payable on or in respect of the share into a separate account shall not constitute the Company a trustee in respect thereof. 73. Interest on dividend No dividend or distribution shall bear interest against the Company. CAPITALIZATION 74. Capitalization (a) The Board may resolve to capitalize any part of the amount for the time being standing to the credit of any of the Company’s share premium or other reserve accounts or funds or to the credit of the profit and loss account or otherwise available for distribution by applying such sum in paying up unissued shares to be allotted as fully paid shares pro rata to the Members. (b) The Board may resolve to capitalize any sum standing to the credit of a reserve account or funds or sums otherwise available for dividend or distribution by applying such amounts in paying up in full partly paid shares of those Members who would have been entitled to such sums if they were distributed by way of dividend or distribution. ACCOUNTS AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 75. Records of account The Board shall cause to be kept proper records of account with respect to all transactions of the Company and in particular with respect to:

33 (a) all sums of money received and expended by the Company and the matters in respect of which the receipt and expenditure relates; (b) all sales and purchases of goods by the Company; and (c) the assets and liabilities of the Company. Such records of account shall be kept at the Registered Office or, subject to Section 83(2) of the Act, at such other place as the Board thinks fit and shall be available for inspection by the Directors during normal business hours. No Member in its capacity as a Member shall have any right to inspect any accounting record or book or document of the Company except as conferred by the Act or as authorised by the Board. 76. Financial year end The financial year end of the Company may be determined by resolution of the Board and failing such resolution shall be December 31 in each year. 77. Financial statements Subject to any rights to waive laying of accounts pursuant to Section 88 of the Act, financial statements as required by the Act shall be laid before the Members in general meeting. AUDIT 78. Appointment of Auditor Subject to Section 88 of the Act, at the annual general meeting or at a subsequent special general meeting in each year, an independent representative of the Members shall be appointed by them as Auditor of the accounts of the Company. Such Auditor may be a Member but no Director, Officer or employee of the Company shall, during his or her continuance in office, be eligible to act as an Auditor of the Company. 79. Remuneration of Auditor The remuneration of the Auditor shall be fixed by the Company in general meeting or in such manner as the Members may determine. 80. Vacation of office of Auditor If the office of Auditor becomes vacant by the resignation or death of the Auditor, or by the Auditor becoming incapable of acting by reason of illness or other disability at a time when the Auditor’s services are required, the Board may fill the vacancy thereby created. 81. Access to books of the Company The Auditor shall at all reasonable times have access to all books kept by the Company and to all accounts and vouchers relating thereto, and the Auditor may call on the Directors or Officers of the Company for any information in their possession relating to the books or affairs of the Company. 82. Report of the Auditor (a) Subject to any rights to waive laying of accounts or appointment of an Auditor pursuant to Section 88 of the Act, the accounts of the Company shall be audited at least once in every year.

34 (b) The financial statements provided for by these Bye-laws shall be audited by the Auditor in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. The Auditor shall make a written report thereon in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and the report of the Auditor shall be submitted to the Members in general meeting. (c) The generally accepted auditing standards referred to in paragraph (b) of this Bye-law 82 shall be those of the United States and the financial statements and the report of the Auditor shall disclose this fact. GRATUITIES, PENSIONS AND INSURANCE 83. Benefits The Board may (by establishment of or maintenance of schemes or otherwise) provide benefits, whether by share options and incentive plans and loans to acquire shares (subject to obtaining any general or specific consent under the provision of Section 96 of the Act), by the payment of gratuities or pensions or by insurance or otherwise, for any past or present Director, Officer or employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates and for any member of his or her family (including a spouse and a former spouse) or any individual who is or was dependent on him or her, and may (as well before as after he ceases to hold such office or employment) contribute to any fund and pay premiums for the purchase or provision of any such benefit. 84. Insurance Without prejudice to the provisions of Bye-laws 30 and 31, the Board shall have the power to purchase and maintain insurance for or for the benefit of any individuals who are or were at any time Directors, Officers or employees of the Company, or of any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, or who are or were at any time trustees of any pension fund in which Directors, Officers or employees of the Company or any such subsidiary or affiliate are interested, including (without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing) insurance against any liability incurred by such individuals in respect of any act or omission in the actual or purported execution or discharge of their duties or in the exercise or purported exercise of their powers or otherwise in relation to their duties, powers or offices in relation to the Company or any such other company, subsidiary, affiliate or pension fund. 85. Limitation on Accountability No Director or former Director shall be accountable to the Company or the Members for any benefit provided pursuant to Bye-law 83 or 84 and the receipt of any such benefit shall not disqualify any individual from being or becoming a Director of the Company. NOTICES 86. Notices to Members of the Company A notice may be given by the Company to any Member either by delivering it to such Member in person or by sending it to such Member’s address in the Register of Members or to such other address given for the purpose. For the purposes of this Bye-law, a notice may be sent by mail, courier service, cable, telex, telecopier, facsimile, electronic-mail or

35 other mode of representing words in a legible and non-transitory form. If such notice is sent by next-day courier, cable, telex, telecopier, facsimile or electronic-mail, it shall be deemed to have been given the Business Day following the sending thereof and, if by registered mail, three Business Days following the sending thereof. 87. Notices to Joint Members Any notice required to be given to a Member shall, with respect to any shares held jointly by two or more Persons, be given to whichever of such Persons is named first in the Register of Members and notice so given shall be sufficient notice to all the holders of such shares. 88. Service and delivery of notice Subject to Bye-law 86, any notice shall be deemed to have been served at the time when the same would be delivered in the ordinary course of transmission and, in proving such service, it shall be sufficient to prove that the notice was properly addressed and prepaid, if posted, and the time when it was posted, delivered to the courier or to the cable company or transmitted by telex, facsimile or other method as the case may be. REGISTERED OFFICE 89. Registered Office The Registered Office shall be at such address as the Board may fix from time to time by resolution. SEAL OF THE COMPANY 90.

Manner in which seal is to be affixed The seal of the Company shall not be affixed to any instrument except attested by the signature of a Director and the Secretary or any two Directors, or any person appointed by the Board for the purpose; provided, that any Director or Officer may affix the seal of the Company attested by such Director’s or Officer’s signature only to any authenticated copies of these Bye-laws, the incorporating documents of the Company, the minutes of any meetings or any other documents required to be authenticated by such Director or Officer. Any such signature may be printed or affixed by mechanical means on any share certificate, debenture, stock certificate or other security certificate. 92. Destruction of Documents The Company shall be entitled to destroy all instruments of transfer of shares which have been registered, and all other documents on the basis of which any entry is made in the Register of Members, at any time after the expiration of six years from the date of registration thereof and all dividends mandates or variations or cancellations thereof and notifications of change of address at any time after the expiration of two years from the date of recording thereof and all share certificates which have been canceled at any time after the expiration of one year from the date of cancellation thereof and all paid

36 dividends, warrants and checks (cheques) at any time after the expiration of one year from the date of actual payment thereof and all instruments of proxy which have been used for the purpose of a poll at any time after the expiration of one year from the date of such use and all instruments of proxy which have not been used for the purpose of a poll at any time after one month from the end of the meeting to which the instrument of proxy relates and at which no poll was demanded. It shall conclusively be presumed in favor of the Company that every entry in the Register of Members purporting to have been made on the basis of an instrument of transfer or other document so destroyed was duly and properly made, that every instrument of transfer so destroyed was a valid and effective instrument duly and properly registered, that every share certificate so destroyed was a valid and effective certificate duly and properly canceled and that every other document hereinbefore mentioned so destroyed was a valid and effective document in accordance with the recorded particulars thereof in the books or records of the Company; provided, that: (a) the provisions aforesaid shall apply only to the destruction of a document in good faith and without notice of any claim (regardless of the parties thereto) to which the document might be relevant; (b) nothing herein contained shall be construed as imposing upon the Company any liability in respect of the destruction of any such document earlier than as aforesaid or in any other circumstances which would not attach to the Company in the absence of this Bye-law; and (c) references herein to the destruction of any document include references to the disposal thereof in any manner. UNTRACED MEMBERS 93. Sale of Shares The Company shall be entitled to sell at the best price reasonably obtainable, or if the shares are listed on a stock exchange to purchase at the trading price on the date of purchase, the shares of a Member or the shares to which a Person is entitled by virtue of transmission on death, bankruptcy or otherwise by operation of law; provided, that: (a) during the period of 12 years prior to the date of the publication of the advertisements referred to in paragraph (b) of this Bye-law 93 (or, if published on different dates, the first thereof) at least three dividends in respect of the shares in question have been declared and all dividends, warrants and checks (cheques) that have been sent in the manner authorised by these Bye-laws in respect of the shares in question have remained uncashed; (b) the Company shall as soon as practicable after expiry of the said period of 12 years have inserted advertisements both in a national daily newspaper and in a newspaper circulating in the area of the last known address of such Member or other Person giving notice of its intention to sell or purchase the shares; (c) during the said period of 12 years and the period of three months following the publication of the said advertisements the Company shall have received no indication either of the whereabouts or of the existence of such Member or Person; and

37 (d) if the shares are listed on a stock exchange, notice shall have been given to the relevant department of such stock exchange of the Company's intention to make such sale or purchase prior to the publication of advertisements. If during any 12-year period referred to above, further shares have been issued in right of those held at the beginning of such period or of any previously issued during such period and all the other requirements of this Bye-law 93 (other than the requirement that they be in issue for 12 years) have been satisfied in regard to the further shares, the Company may also sell or purchase the further shares. 94. Instrument of Transfer To give effect to any such sale or purchase pursuant to Bye-law 93, the Board may authorise some person to execute an instrument of transfer of the shares sold or purchased to, or in accordance with the directions of, the purchaser and an instrument of transfer executed by that person shall be as effective as if it had been executed by the holder of, or person entitled by transmission to, the shares. The transferee of any shares sold shall not be bound to see to the application of the purchase money, nor shall his title to the shares be affected by any irregularity in, or invalidity of, the proceedings relating to the sale. 95. Proceeds of Sale The net proceeds of sale or purchase of shares pursuant to Bye-law 93 shall belong to the Company which, for the period of six years after the transfer or purchase, shall be obliged to account to the former Member or other Person previously entitled as aforesaid for an amount equal to such proceeds and shall enter the name of such former Member or other Person in the books of the Company as a creditor for such amount. No trust shall be created in respect of the debt, no interest shall be payable in respect of the same and the Company shall not be required to account for any money earned on the net proceeds, which may be employed in the business of the Company or invested in such investments as the Board from time to time thinks fit. After the said six-year period has passed, the net proceeds of share shall become the property of the Company, absolutely, and any rights of the former Member or other Person previously entitled as aforesaid shall terminate completely. WINDING-UP 96. Determination to liquidate Subject to the Act, the Company shall be wound up voluntarily by resolution of the Members; provided, that the Board shall have the power to present any petition and make application in connection with the winding up or liquidation of the Company.

38 97. Winding-up/distribution by liquidator If the Company shall be wound up the liquidator may, with the sanction of a resolution of the Members, divide among the Members in specie or in kind the whole or any part of the assets of the Company (whether they shall consist of property of the same kind or not) and may, for such purpose, set such value as he or she deems fair upon any property to be divided as aforesaid and may determine how such division shall be carried out as between the Members or different classes of Members. The liquidator may, with the like sanction, vest the whole or any part of such assets in trustees upon such trusts for the benefit of the Members as the liquidator shall think fit, but so that no Member shall be compelled to accept any shares or other securities or assets whereon there is any liability. ALTERATION OF BYE-LAWS 98. Alteration of Bye-laws No Bye-law shall be rescinded, altered or amended and no new Bye-law shall be made until the same has been approved by a resolution of the Board and confirmed by a resolution of the Members. Paragraph (b) of Bye-law 11 and all of Bye-law 12 shall not be rescinded, altered or amended and no new Bye-law inconsistent with such existing Bye-laws shall be made until the same has been approved by a resolution of the Board and confirmed by a resolution of Members holding at least sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66 2/3 %) of the issued and outstanding share capital of the Company. ****** *** *

A certificate as to such amounts submitted to the Account Party by Bank shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. Bank shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office if such designation will avoid (or reduce the cost to the Account Party of) any event described in the preceding sentence and such designation will not, in Bank’s 14 17103949v6

good faith judgment, subject Bank to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to Bank. Notwithstanding the provisions of clause (v) or (vi) above or Section 2(c) below (and without limiting the immediately preceding paragraph), Bank shall not be entitled to compensation from the Account Party for any amount arising prior to the date which is 180 days before the date on which Bank notifies the Account Party of such event or circumstance (except that if such event or circumstance is retroactive, then such 180-day period shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

NOTICES. Unless otherwise expressly provided herein, all notices, Instructions, approvals, requests, demands, consents and other communications provided for hereunder (collectively, “notices”) shall be in writing (including by facsimile or other electronic transmission approved by Bank).

for its account, including, without limitation, any amendment thereto or waiver of any discrepancy thereunder, and the Account Party shall be bound by and hereby affirms the Instructions of the other. The Account Party irrevocably consents that service of process may be made by registered or certified mail directed to it at the address of its agent for service of process, [*****]. 20. WAIVER AND AMENDMENTS. No modification, amendment or waiver of, or consent to any departure by Bank or the Account Party from, any provision of any Credit Document will be effective unless made in a writing signed by the Account Party (in the case of Bank) or Bank (in the case of the Account Party), and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No party’s consent to any amendment, waiver or modification shall mean that such party will consent or has consented to any other or subsequent request to amend, modify or waive a term of any Credit Document. No delay by any party in exercising any of its rights or remedies shall operate as a waiver, nor shall any single or partial waiver of any right or remedy preclude any other further exercise of that right or remedy, or the exercise of any other right or remedy. 21. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. Each Credit Document to which the Account Party is a party will be binding on the Account Party’s successors and permitted assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of the respective successors and permitted assigns of the Account Party and Bank. Except as provided in the last sentence of this Section 21, Bank may assign its rights and obligations under each Credit Document, including its rights to reimbursement regarding any Letter of Credit, in whole or in part, with the Account Party’s consent; provided that the Account Party shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it objects by written notice to Bank within ten (10) Business Days after having received notice thereof; and, provided further, that the Account Party’s consent to an assignment to any Person shall not be required if (i) the assignment is to an affiliate of Bank or (ii) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. Bank may sell to one or more Persons participations in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under the Credit Documents without the Account Party’s consent. Any assignment in violation of this Section 21 shall be void. The Account Party shall not assign or transfer any of its interests, rights or remedies related to any Credit Document, in whole or in part, without the prior written consent of Bank. Any Person to whom Bank delegates its obligation to issue a Letter of Credit must be a bank that is on the List of Qualified U.S. Financial Institutions maintained by the Securities Valuation Office of the National Association of Insurance Commissioners. 22. SEVERABILITY. Whenever possible, each provision of each Credit Document shall be interpreted in a manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of any Credit Document shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity without invalidating the remainder of such provision or any remaining provisions of such Credit Document. 23. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement, together with the other Credit Documents and any other agreement, document or instrument referred to herein, constitute the final, exclusive and entire agreement and understanding of, and supersede all prior or contemporaneous, oral or written, agreements, understandings, representations and negotiations between, the parties relating to the subject matter of the Credit Documents, provided that this Agreement shall not supersede any reimbursement agreement (however titled) that has been entered into specifically with respect to any “direct pay” standby letter of credit or other similar standby letter of credit where the terms of such reimbursement agreement have been drafted to specifically address the particular attributes of, or the particular circumstances of the underlying transaction supported by, such standby letter of credit. 24. AMENDMENT AND RESTATEMENT; NO NOVATION. This Agreement constitutes an amendment and restatement of the Existing Agreement, effective from and after the Closing Date. The 38 17103949v6

execution and delivery of this Agreement shall not constitute a novation of any indebtedness or other obligations owing to the Bank under the Existing Agreement based on facts or events occurring or existing prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement. On the Closing Date, the letter of credit facility described in the Existing Agreement shall be amended, supplemented, modified and restated in its entirety by the letter of credit facility described herein, without any further action by any Person, and all obligations of the Account Party outstanding as of such date under the Existing Agreement shall be deemed to be obligations outstanding under the letter of credit facility described herein. Each Existing Letter of Credit issued for the account of the Account Party and outstanding on the Closing Date will continue and be deemed Issued under this Agreement for the account of the Account Party.
